Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that Abdullah
ibn az-Zubayr used to say, "Know that the whole of Arafa is a
standing-place except for the middle of Urana, and that the wholeof
Muzdalifa is a standing-place except for the middle of Muhassir."
Malik said, "Allah, the Blessed and Exalted says, 'There is to be
no rafath, no fusuq and no jidal during the hajj.' " (Sura 2 ayat
197).
He added, "Rafath is sexual relations with women, and
Allah knows best. Allah, the Blessed and Exalted says, 'Rafath with
your women is permitted to you on the night of the fast.' (Sura 2 ayat
197). Fusuq are sacrifices made to idols, and Allah knows best. Allah,
the Blessed and Exalted, says, 'Or a fisq offered up to other than
Allah.' (Sura 2 ayat 197) Jidal (arguing) during the hajj refers to
when the Quraysh used to stand near the mashar al-haram at Quzah in
Muzdalifa, while the Arabs and others would stand at Arafa, and they
would argue about who was the more correct. Allah, the Blessed and
Exalted, says, 'And we appointed a method of sacrifice for every
nation, which they followed, so let them not dispute with you about
the matter, and call to your Lord. Surely you are on a straight
guidance.' (Sura 22 ayat 67) This is what jidal refers to in our
opinion, and Allah knows best. This I have heard from the people of
knowledge."
Muwatta Malik Book 20, Hadith 179
He who uttered these words:" There is no god but Allah, the One, having no partner with Him. Sovereignty belongs to Him and all the praise is due to Him, and He is Potent over everything" one hundred times every day there is a reward of emancipating ten slaves for him, and there are recorded hundred virtues to his credit, and hundred vices are blotted out from his scroll, and that is a safeguard for him against the Satan on that day till evening and no one brings anything more excellent than this, except one who has done more than this (who utters these words more than one hundred times and does more good acts) and he who utters:" Hallowed be Allah, and all praise is due to Him," one hundred times a day, his sins are obliterated even if they are equal to the extent of the foam of the ocean.
