344. Sunnah of Rami at the Jamarat

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to say when throwing pebbles in three jamarat:

اَللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ

Sunnah of Rami at the Jamarat English Transliteration

Allahu 'Akbar

Sunnah of Rami at the Jamarat English Translation

Allah is the Most Great.

Then he would move forward a little and stand facing the Qibla and would do Dua with both hands raised in the first Jamra and the second Jamra. But at the time of throwing every pebble at Jamratul Akbaba, he would say ‘Allahu Akbar’ and return without staying there.

Hadith about the Dua

Arabic Text

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَرْمِي الْجَمْرَةَ الدُّنْيَا بِسَبْعِ حَصَيَاتٍ يُكَبِّرُ عَلَى إِثْرِ كُلِّ حَصَاةٍ، ثُمَّ يَتَقَدَّمُ حَتَّى يَسْهُلَ فَيَقُومَ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ، فَيَدْعُو رَافِعًا يَدَيْهِ طَوِيلًا، ثُمَّ يَرْمِي الْوُسْطَى، ثُمَّ يَنْحَرِفُ عَنْهَا فَيَقُومُ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ، فَيَدْعُو رَافِعًا يَدَيْهِ، وَقَالَ: كَذَلِكَ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَفْعَلُ.

Translation

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar (may Allah be pleased with them): He used to throw seven pebbles at the Jamrat ad-Dunya, and after each pebble he would say Takbir (i.e., "Allahu Akbar"). Then he would move forward and stand facing the Qiblah, and he would stand for a long time supplicating, raising his hands. Then he would throw at the middle Jamrah and move to one side and stand facing the Qiblah, and he would supplicate, raising his hands. He said, "That is how I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) doing."
