122. CHAPTER CONCERNING THE AHADEETH THAT ILLUSTRATE THAT MUHAMMAD (PBUH) ADDRESSED THE PEOPLE IN MINAON THE SECOND DAY FROM THE DAYS OF TASHREEQ
Abu Dawood said in the chapter concerning which day the Sermon was given in Mina. Narrated by Ibn Abi Najeeh, from his father, from two men from Banu Bakr who said: We saw the Messenger of Allah (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him) address (the people) between the middle days of the days of Tashreeq, while we were by his riding animal, and it was the Sermon of the Messenger of Allah that he addressed in Mina.
From Sarra’Bint Nabhan – and she was a housewife in Jahiliyyah– who said: The Messenger of Allah (Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him) addressed us on the day of heads (the day when the heads of the sacrifices are eaten i.e. the first day of Tashreeq), saying: “What day is this?” We said: “Allah and his Messenger know best.” He said: “Isn’t this the middle of the days of Tashreeq (three days of Mina i.e. 11th,12th and 13th of Dhul-Hijjah).”
Ibn Hazm mentioned: It has occurred that the Prophet addressed the people on the day of heads and it is the second day from the day of sacrifice without any difference from the people of Makkah, and it has been mentioned that it is the middle of the days of Tashreeq, so middle can mean most noble, just as Allah said: And thus we have made you a median community. (Soorah Al-Baqarah 2: 143). And this course that Ibn Hazm followed is far from what is correct.
