Calmness and Measurement in Actions

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) teaching people to be calm and measured in their actions, even when they are rushing.

It was narrated from 'Ali bin Abi Talib (رضي الله عنه) that The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood in 'Arafah with Usamah bin Zaid riding behind him and said: "This is a place of standing and all of 'Arafah is a place of standing'. then he moved on at a measured pace and the people were rushing right and left. He turned to them and said: "Calmly, O people; Calmly, O people'. When he came to al-Muzdalifah, he put two prayers together, then he stood in al-Muzdalifah with al-Fadl bin 'Abbas riding behind him. Then he stopped in Quzah and said: 'This is the place of standing, and all of al-Muzdalifah is a place of standing'. Then he moved on at a measured pace, and the people were rushing right and left. He turned to them and said: 'Calmly, O people; calmly, O people". When he stopped in Muhassir, he struck his mount and it trotted until it left the valley. Then he continued until he came to the Jamrah, then he went to the place of sacrifice and said: "This is the place of sacrifice and all of Mina is a place of sacrifice". and he mentioned a hadeeth like that of Ahmad bin 'Abdah from al-Mugheerah bin
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، فِي سَنَةِ سِتٍّ وَعِشْرِينَ وَمِائَتَيْنِ حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الزَّنْجِيُّ، قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قُلْتُ لِسُوَيْدٍ وَلِمَ سُمِّيَ الزَّنْجِيَّ قَالَ كَانَ شَدِيدَ السَّوَادِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَقَفَ بِعَرَفَةَ وَهُوَ مُرْدِفٌ أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ فَقَالَ هَذَا مَوْقِفٌ وَكُلُّ عَرَفَةَ مَوْقِفٌ ثُمَّ دَفَعَ فَجَعَلَ يَسِيرُ الْعَنَقَ وَالنَّاسُ يَضْرِبُونَ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالًا وَهُوَ يَلْتَفِتُ وَيَقُولُ السَّكِينَةَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ السَّكِينَةَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ حَتَّى جَاءَ الْمُزْدَلِفَةَ فَجَمَعَ بَيْنَ الصَّلَاتَيْنِ ثُمَّ وَقَفَ بِالْمُزْدَلِفَةِ فَأَرْدَفَ الْفَضْلَ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ثُمَّ وَقَفَ عَلَى قُزَحَ فَقَالَ هَذَا الْمَوْقِفُ وَكُلُّ الْمُزْدَلِفَةِ مَوْقِفٌ ثُمَّ دَفَعَ فَجَعَلَ يَسِيرُ الْعَنَقَ وَالنَّاسُ يَضْرِبُونَ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالًا وَهُوَ يَلْتَفِتُ وَيَقُولُ السَّكِينَةَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ السَّكِينَةَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ فَلَمَّا وَقَفَ عَلَى مُحَسِّرٍ قَرَعَ رَاحِلَتَهُ فَخَبَّتْ بِهِ حَتَّى خَرَجَتْ مِنْ الْوَادِي ثُمَّ سَارَ مَسِيرَتَهُ حَتَّى أَتَى الْجَمْرَةَ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ الْمَنْحَرَ فَقَالَ هَذَا الْمَنْحَرُ وَكُلُّ مِنًى مَنْحَرٌ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَةَ عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مِثْلَهُ أَوْ نَحْوَهُ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's teachings on how to act calmly and with measure, even when one is rushing or in a hurry. He was riding with Usamah bin Zaid behind him at 'Arafah, where he stopped and said that it was a place of standing for all of 'Arafah. He then moved on at a measured pace while the people were rushing right and left, so he turned to them and said "Calmly O people; calmly O people." When he came to al-Muzdalifah, he put two prayers together before stopping again at Quzah where he repeated his words from before. At Muhassir, his mount trotted until it left the valley before continuing until they reached Jamrah where they went to the place of sacrifice. Here too, he repeated his words from before saying that this was a place of sacrifice for all of Mina'. This hadith teaches us that we should always act calmly and with measure no matter what situation we find ourselves in or how rushed we may feel. We should take our time instead of rushing around as this will help us make better decisions as well as avoid any mistakes due to haste or carelessness.
