[Machine] It says, "Indeed, Al-Aqra bin Habis asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ if Hajj is obligatory every year. He replied, 'No, rather it is obligatory once, and if I had said yes, it would have become obligatory, and if it had become obligatory, you would not have been able to afford it or bear it.'"  

الحاكم:١٧٢٧حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْأُمَوِيُّ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْحَلِيمِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ قَالَا ثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيُّ ثنا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَفْصَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

أَنَّ الْأَقْرَعَ بْنَ حَابِسٍ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْحَجُّ كُلُّ عَامٍ؟ قَالَ «لَا بَلْ حَجَّةً وَاحِدَةً وَلَوْ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ لَوَجَبَتْ وَلَوْ وَجَبَتْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا وَلَمْ تُطِيقُوا»

[Machine] "Indeed, Al-Aqra bin Habis asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ whether Hajj is obligatory every year. He replied, 'No, rather it is a obligation upon you once. Whoever performs Hajj after that, it is considered voluntary. Even if I had said 'Yes', it would have been obligatory, and even if it had been obligatory, you would not have been able to afford it or obey it.'"  

أحمد:٣٥١٠حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَفْصَةَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَبِى سِنَانٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

أَنَّ الْأَقْرَعَ بْنَ حَابِسٍ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ الْحَجُّ كُلَّ عَامٍ؟ فَقَالَ لَا بَلْ حَجَّةٌ فَمَنْ حَجَّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ تَطَوُّعٌ وَلَوْ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ لَوَجَبَتْ وَلَوْ وَجَبَتْ لَمْ تَسْمَعُوا وَلَمْ تُطِيعُوا

[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, is Hajj performed every year?" He replied, "No, rather it is required once. Whoever performs it after that, it will be considered as a voluntary act. Even if I were to say yes, it would become obligatory, but you would not be able to hear and obey. The narration of Suraqah in Umrah has already passed."
