1. We were told by Muhammed bin Ahmad al-Shaybani, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Abi Abdillah al-Kufi, that he said: We were told by Musa bin Imran al-Nakha’I, from his paternal uncle, Hussain bin Yazid, from Isma’eel ibn Muslim, from Ja’far bin Muhammed, from his father, from his grandfather, from Ali, peace be upon them, that he said
Jibra’eel descended unto the Prophet, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, and said: O Muhammed, order you companions to ‘ajj and thajj. ‘Ajj is to raise the voices during declaring gratification (to Allah), and thajj is to slaughter the cattle.
حدثنا محمد بن أحمد الشيباني - رضي الله عنه - قال: حدثنا محمد بن أبي عبد الله الكوفي، قال: حدثنا موسى بن عمران النخعي، عن عمه الحسين بن يزيد، عن إسماعيل ابن مسلم، عن جعفر بن محمد، عن أبيه، عن جده، عن علي عليهم السلام قال
نزل جبرئيل على النبي صلى الله عليه وآله فقال: يا محمد مر أصحابك بالعج والثج. فالعج رفع الأصوات بالتلبية، والثج نحر البدن.
