3050. It was narrated that 'Amr bin Maimûn said: "I heard him say: 'I saw 'Umar in Al-Muzdalifah and he said: The people of the Jâhiliyyah would not depart until the sun had risen, and they would say: Shine, O Thabîr![1] The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ differed from them and departed before the sun had risen.” (Sahîh)
3047 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: شَهِدْتُ عُمَرَ، بِجَمْعٍ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ كَانُوا لَا يُفِيضُونَ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ، وَيَقُولُونَ: أَشْرِقْ ثَبِيرُ «وَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، خَالَفَهُمْ، ثُمَّ أَفَاضَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ»

“O Thabîr! Shine brightly!” Thabîr is the name of a mountain, which is located within the boundaries of Muzdalifah itself. Apparently, when the sun rises, its light first falls on this mountain. One comes to know of sunrise from the gleaming mountain. The intent of the people of ignorance was that when the mountain brightens up, meaning when the sun rises, we would proceed. But Allâh’s Messenger ﷺ proceeded before sunrise, and this is the Sunnah. Although, the rising of the sun while one is still in Al-Muzdalifah would cause no harm to the Hajj, because this might occur in the face of multitudes.
