[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ delivering a sermon to the people on the day of Arafah while riding on a standing camel between the two saddlebags.
رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ قَائِمًا فِي الرِّكَابَيْنِ
[Machine] He is called Al-Zujaj. When we finished our rituals, we came until we reached Al-Zujaj. We stayed there and rested. Then we continued until we reached a well where there were dyed ropes and people talking. We asked them, "Is this where the Prophet's ﷺ house is?" They said, "Yes, he was here and that is his house." We continued until we reached the house and greeted the people inside. They gave us permission to enter. Inside, there was an old man lying down, whose name was Al-Adaa' ibn Khalid Al-Kalabi. I asked him, "Are you the one who accompanied the Prophet ﷺ ?" He said, "Yes, if it weren't night I would have read to you the book of the Prophet ﷺ that he recited to me." Then he asked, "Who are you?" We replied, "We are from the people of Basra." He said, "Welcome, what is Yazeed ibn Muhalab doing?" We replied, "He is there, calling people to the book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ ." He asked, "What do you think about them? Who should we follow, them or the people of Sham?" He replied, "If you sit down with them, you will be successful and guided. I don't know anyone other than them who said this. I saw the Prophet ﷺ on the Day of Arafah when he was standing between the two stone pillars, calling out with the loudest voice, 'O people, what day is this for you?' They replied, 'Allah and His Messenger know best.' He asked, 'What month is this for you?' They replied, 'Allah and His Messenger know best.' He asked, 'What city is this for you?' They replied, 'Allah and His Messenger know best.' He said, 'Indeed, your blood and wealth are sacred to you, just as this day is sacred in this month of yours in this city of yours, until you meet your Lord, and He will ask you about your deeds.' Then he raised his hands to the sky and said, 'O Allah, bear witness to this. O Allah, bear witness to this.' I don't know how many times he repeated this statement."
