English translation
6228. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin 'Abbās رضي الله عنها: Al-Faḍl bin 'Abbās rode behind Allāh's Messenger ﷺ as his companion rider on the back portion of his she-camel on the day of Nahr (slaughtering of sacrifice, 10th Dhul-Hijja) and Al-Faḍl was a handsome man. The Prophet ﷺ stopped to give the people verdicts (regarding their matters). In the meantime, a beautiful woman from the tribe of Khath'am came, asking the verdict of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. Al-Faḍl started looking at her as her beauty attracted him. The Prophet ﷺ looked behind while Al-Faḍl was looking at her; so the Prophet ﷺ held out his hand backwards and caught the chin of Al-Faḍl and turned his face (to the other side) in order that he should not gaze at her. She said, "O Allāh's Messenger! The obligation of performing Hajj enjoined by Allāh on His worshippers has become due (compulsory) on my father who is an old man and who cannot sit firmly on the riding animal. Will it be sufficient that I perform Hajj on his behalf?" He said, "Yes." [See Vol. 2, Hadīth No. 1513]
