حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْحَجَّاجَ يَقُولُ عَلَی الْمِنْبَرِ السُّورَةُ الَّتِي يُذْکَرُ فِيهَا الْبَقَرَةُ وَالسُّورَةُ الَّتِي يُذْکَرُ فِيهَا آلُ عِمْرَانَ وَالسُّورَةُ الَّتِي يُذْکَرُ فِيهَا النِّسَائُ قَالَ فَذَکَرْتُ ذَلِکَ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ أَنَّهُ کَانَ مَعَ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ حِينَ رَمَی جَمْرَةَ الْعَقَبَةِ فَاسْتَبْطَنَ الْوَادِيَ حَتَّی إِذَا حَاذَی بِالشَّجَرَةِ اعْتَرَضَهَا فَرَمَی بِسَبْعِ حَصَيَاتٍ يُکَبِّرُ مَعَ کُلِّ حَصَاةٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ مِنْ هَا هُنَا وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ قَامَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَتْ عَلَيْهِ سُورَةُ الْبَقَرَةِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 1750
Narrated Al-A`mash: I heard Al-Hajjaj saying on the pulpit, "The Sura in which Al-Baqara (the cow) is mentioned and the Sura in which the family of `Imran is mentioned and the Sura in which the women (An-Nisa) is mentioned." I mentioned this to Ibrahim, and he said, `Abdur-Rahman bin Yazid told me, 'I was with Ibn Mas`ud, when he did the Rami of the Jamrat-ul-Aqaba. He went down the middle of the valley, and when he came near the tree (which was near the Jamra) he stood opposite to it and threw seven small pebbles and said: 'Allahu-Akbar' on throwing every pebble.' Then he said, 'By Him, except Whom none has the right to be worshipped, here (at this place) stood the one on whom Surat-al-Baqra was revealed (i.e. Allah's Apostle).' "
