أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ کَانَتْ قُرَيْشٌ تَقِفُ بِالْمُزْدَلِفَةِ وَيُسَمَّوْنَ الْحُمْسَ وَسَائِرُ الْعَرَبِ تَقِفُ بِعَرَفَةَ فَأَمَرَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَکَ وَتَعَالَی نَبِيَّهُ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَقِفَ بِعَرَفَةَ ثُمَّ يَدْفَعُ مِنْهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ثُمَّ أَفِيضُوا مِنْ حَيْثُ أَفَاضَ النَّاسُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3019
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “The Quraish used to stand in Al-Muzdalifah and they called themselves Al-Hums, and the rest of the ‘Arabs stood in ‘Arafat. Then Allah, Blessed and Most High, commanded His Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم to stand in ‘Arafat, and then move on from there. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, revealed: ‘Then depart from the place whence all the people depart.” (Sahih)
