حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ الْأَقْرَعَ بْنَ حَابِسٍ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ الْحَجُّ فِي کُلِّ سَنَةٍ أَوْ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً قَالَ بَلْ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً فَمَنْ اسْتَطَاعَ فَتَطَوَّعَ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2886
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that Aqre' bin Habis asked the Prophet "0 Messenger of Allah, is Hajj (required) every year, or just once?" He said: "Rather it is just once. And whoever can perform Hajj voluntarily, let him do so." (Sahih)
