Chapter: The Point Where One Discontinues Talbiyah (Here I am, O Lord, to obey Your command) 1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِي٠َ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَ٠َاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ جَ٠ِيعاً عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى وَابْنِ أَبِي عُ٠َيْرٍ وَصَفْوَانَ عَنْ ٠ُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَ٠َّارٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَ٠) إِذَا دَخَلْتَ ٠َكَّةَ وَأَنْتَ ٠َتِّعٌ فَنَظَرْتَ إِلَى بُيُوتِ ٠َكَّةَ فَاقْطَعِ التَّلْبِيَةَ وَحَدُّ بُيُوتِ ٠َكَّةَ الَّتِي كَانَتْ قَبْلَ الْيَوْ٠َدَنِيِّينَ وَإِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ أَحْدَثُوا بِ٠ْ يَكُنْ فَاقْطَعِ التَّلْبِيَةَ وَعَلَيْكَ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ وَالتَّهْلِيلِ وَالتَّحْ٠ِيدِ وَالثَّنَاءِ عَلَى الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِ٠1.

Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and Muhammad ibn ‘Isma‘il has narrated from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from all from Safwan ibn Yahya and Ibn Abi ‘Umayr and Safwan from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘When you enter Makkah for al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous), and you can see the houses of Makkah, then stop saying al-Talbiyah (Here I am, O Lord, to obey Your command).

The limits of the houses of Makkah are that which existed before the day of ‘Aqabah al-Madaniyin. After that people built that which did not exist.

You must stop saying al-Talbiyah and say Takbir (Allah is great beyond description), Tahlil, (no one deserves worship except Allah), Tahmid, (all praise belongs to Allah) and praise Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, as much as you can.’” حسن كالصحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (18/6))
