Muwatta Malik #766
Hajj
Yahya related to me from Malik from Said ibn Abi Said al-Maqburi
that Ubayd ibn Jurayj once said to Abdullah ibn Umar, "Abu Abd ar-
Rahman, I have seen you doing four things which I have never seen any
of your companions doing." He said, "What are they, Ibn Jurayj?" and
he replied, "I have seen you touching only the twoYamani corners, I
have seen you wearing hairless sandals, I have seen you using yellow
dye, and, when you were at Makka and everybody had started doing
talbiya after seeing the new moon, I saw that you did not do so until
the eighth of Dhu'l-Hijja."
Abdullah ibn Umar replied, "As
for the corners, I only ever saw the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, touching the two Yamani corners. As for
the sandals, I saw the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, wearing hairless sandals and doing wudu in them, and
I like wearing them. As for using yellow dye, I saw the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, using it, and I also
like to use it for dyeing things with. As for doing talbiya, I never
saw the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
begin doing so until he had set out on the animal he was riding on
(i.e. for Mina and Arafa)."
