[3132] 306 - (...) It was narrated that Al-A'mash said: "I heard Al-Hajjāj bin Yūsuf say - while he was delivering a Khuṭbah on the Minbar: 'Observe the order of the Qur'ān as it was observed by Jibrīl: The Sūrah in which the cow is mentioned, the Sūrah in which women are mentioned, and the Sūrah in which the family of Imrān are mentioned." "So I met Ibrāhīm and told him what he had said, so he criticized him, and he said: "Abdur- Raḥmān bin Yazīd narrated to me that he was with 'Abdullāh bin Mas'ūd, and he came to Jamrat Al-'Aqabah. He went to the bottom of the valley and turned to face it, and he stoned it from the bottom of the valley with seven pebbles, saying the Takbīr with each throw. I said: "O Abū 'Abdur-Raḥmān, the people are stoning it from above." He said: "This, by the One beside Whom there is none worthy of worship, is the place where the one to whom Sūrat Al-Baqarah was revealed stood."
