2. Hammad ibn ‘Isa has narrated from Hariz ibn ‘Abd Allah from Zurarah who has said the following
“I once asked abu Ja‘far (a.s.), about Takbir (Allah is great beyond description) in the days of Tashriq after Salat (prayer). He (the Imam) said, ‘Takbir (Allah is great beyond description) in Mina’ is after fifteen Salawat (prayers). In other cities it is after ten Salawat (prayers). The first Takbir is after Salat (prayer) of al-Zuhr on the day of al-Nahr (slaughtering the offering, 10th of Dhu al-Hajjah) in which one says, ‘Allah is great beyond description, Allah is great beyond description. No one deserves worship except Allah. Allah is great beyond description. Allah is great beyond description. All praise belongs to Allah. Allah is great beyond description. Allah is great beyond description as He has given us the cattle.’ In other cities it is after ten because in the cities when people leave with the first departure, people of the cities stop saying Takbir (Allah is great beyond description); but people in Mina’ continue saying Takbir (Allah is great beyond description) up till the last person’s departure.’” (Fatwa best explains Hadith 2 of this Chapter)
2ـ حَمَّادُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) التَّكْبِيرُ فِي أَيَّامِ التَّشْرِيقِ فِي دُبُرِ الصَّلَوَاتِ فَقَالَ التَّكْبِيرُ بِمِنًى فِي دُبُرِ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ صَلاةً وَفِي سَائِرِ الأَمْصَارِ فِي دُبُرِ عَشْرِ صَلَوَاتٍ وَأَوَّلُ التَّكْبِيرِ فِي دُبُرِ صَلاةِ الظُّهْرِ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ يَقُولُ فِيهِ الله أَكْبَرُ الله أَكْبَرُ لا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ الله وَالله أَكْبَرُ الله أَكْبَرُ وَلله الْحَمْدُ الله أَكْبَرُ عَلَى مَا هَدَانَا الله أَكْبَرُ عَلَى مَا رَزَقَنَا مِنْ بَهِيمَةِ الأَنْعَامِ وَإِنَّمَا جُعِلَ فِي سَائِرِ الأَمْصَارِ فِي دُبُرِ عَشْرِ صَلَوَاتٍ لأَنَّهُ إِذَا نَفَرَ النَّاسُ فِي النَّفْرِ الأَوَّلِ أَمْسَكَ أَهْلُ الأَمْصَارِ عَنِ التَّكْبِيرِ وَكَبَّرَ أَهْلُ مِنًى مَا دَامُوا بِمِنًى إِلَى النَّفْرِ الأَخِيرِ.
