[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ delivered a sermon and said, "O people, the obligation of Hajj has been prescribed upon you." Al-Aqra' ibn Habis stood up and asked, "O Messenger of Allah, is it obligatory every year?" He replied, "If I had said yes, it would have become obligatory and you would not have been able to fulfill it every year. But it is a voluntary act, and whoever performs it more than once, it is considered a voluntary act of worship."  

خَطَبَنَا يَعْنِي رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْحَجُّ قَالَ فَقَامَ الْأَقْرَعُ بْنُ حَابِسٍ فَقَالَ أَفِي كُلِّ عَامٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ لَوْ قُلْتُهَا لَوَجَبَتْ وَلَوْ وَجَبَتْ لَمْ تَعْمَلُوا بِهَا أَوْ لَمْ تَسْتَطِيعُوا أَنْ تَعْمَلُوا بِهَا الْحَجُّ مَرَّةً فَمَنْ زَادَ فَهُوَ تَطَوُّعٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ addressed us saying, "O people, Verily Allah has prescribed upon you the obligation of Hajj." Al-Aqra' bin Habis stood up and asked, "O Messenger of Allah, is it obligatory every year?" He replied, "If I say yes, it would become obligatory, and if it becomes obligatory, you would not be able to fulfill it every year. Therefore, whoever performs it in excess, it will be considered a voluntary act of worship."  

خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَتَبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْحَجَّ» فَقَامَ الْأَقْرَعُ بْنُ حَابِسٍ فَقَالَ أَفِي كُلَّ عَامٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «لَوْ قُلْتُهَا لَوَجَبَتْ وَلَوْ وَجَبَتْ لَمْ تَعْمَلُوا بِهَا أَوْ لَمْ تَسْتَطِيعُوا أَنْ تَعْمَلُوا بِهَا الْحَجُّ مَرَّةً فَمَنْ زَادَ فَتَطَوُّعٌ»  

"يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ: كُتبَ عَليْكُم الْحَجُّ، فَقِيلَ: أفى كُلِّ عَامٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: لَوْ قُلْتُهَا لَوَ جَبَتْ، وَلَوْ وَجَبَتْ لَمْ تَعْملُوهَا، وَلَمْ تَسْتَطِيعُوا أَنْ تَعْملُوا بِهَا، الْحَجُّ مرًّةٌ. فَمنْ زَادَ فَهُوَ تَطَوُّعٌ".
