Quoting the book of the Complete and Chosen Prophet's Khutbah by Muhammad Khalil Khathib, it is said that after the Prophet ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ) took place in Arafah and showed how to perform the Hajj, He ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ He called all the Muslims from his camel so that they would gather around him. His call ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ was repeated by Rabi'ah ibn Umayyah ibn Ghalaf very loudly.
Quietly, on the mountain Jabal Rahmah which is 200 feet or about 61 meters, the Prophet ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ sat on the back of a female camel named al-Qushwa. On the camel's back Rasullullah ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ) delivered his speech known as the Khutbah al-Wada'. It is so named because it is his last speech or farewell.
At that time, He ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ 140,000 Muslims in Arafat Field. This sermon was delivered on 9 Zulhijah year 10 Hijri Calendar or coincided with 6 March 632 AD. In Uranah, the valley of Mount Arafat.
In a story from Abdurrahman ibn Mu'adz al-Taimi, he said, "The apostle ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ delivered a speech to us in Mina, our hearing seemed to be opened so that we listened to whatever he ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ I said, we are still in the house."
In the book 'History of Muhammad's Life' by Muhammad Husain Haekal, it is explained that in the village a camp of the Prophet was installed at his request. When the sun had slipped, the Prophet went again to the number of Urana.
That is where man is called. While on camel, then the prophet delivered his final sermon in a loud voice which Husayn Haikal called the sermon of Arafat. After giving thanks and praises to Allah by stopping at every sentence, the Prophet:
“O people! watch my words! I don't know, just in case after this year, under these circumstances, I will no longer meet you.
“Brothers! That your blood and your possessions are holy to you, as they are today and this holy month until the time comes when you will face the Lord. And surely you will go to the Lord; at that time you will be held accountable for all your deeds.
"Whoever has been entrusted with the mandate, leave the message to those who deserve it.
“That all riba is no longer valid. But you deserve to take back your capital. Do not persecute others, nor do you suffer persecution. Allah has determined that there can no longer be usury and that the usury of Abbas ibn Abdul-Muttalib is all gone.
“That all the claims of blood during the time of Jahiliah no longer apply, and that the first blood claim I abolished was the blood of Ibn Rabi’a bin Harith bin ‘Abdul Muttalib!
“Then than the brothers. Today the lust of Satan that asks to be worshipped in this land has been broken for ever. But if you contribute to him even in what you consider small, which means degrading all your deeds, he will surely be pleased. Therefore keep this religion of yours well.
“Brothers. Delaying the ban on the holy month means increasing the unbelief. The disbelievers were lost. In one year they were broken and in another year they were purified, to be adjusted to the amount that God had sanctified. Then they will justify what Allah has forbidden and forbid what has been done.
“The age has revolved since God created this heaven and earth. The number of months according to God is twelve months, four of which are holy months, three months in a row and the month of Rajab is between the month of Final Friday and Sya’ban.
“Then than that, brothers. Just as you have rights over your wife, your wife has rights over you. Your right to them is not to allow those whom you dislike to set foot on your floor, and not to have them expressly carry vile deeds. If they do all that, God allows you to part the bed with them and can hit them with a blow that does not interfere.
"If they no longer do that, it is your duty to give them a living and clothing with courtesy. Be kind to your wife, they are friends who help you, they have nothing for themselves. You take them as the message of the Lord, and their honor is commended to you in the name of the Lord.
“Please pay attention to these words of mine, brothers. I've already delivered this. There is a problem that I have clearly left in your hands, which if you hold fast, you will not be lost forever; the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah.
“O Humans! Listen to my words and watch! You will understand that every Muslim is a brother to another Muslim, and the Muslims are all brothers. But a person is not allowed (to take something) from his brother, unless he is gladly given to him. Do not persecute yourself.
"Be aware that every Muslim is a brother to another Muslim. You are all the same, no one is more noble than any other except in the Taqwa and do righteous deeds.
“Remember that you will meet God one day to be accounted for in what you have done. Therefore, beware that you never go out of the way of truth after my absence.
“Oh mankind there will be no more Prophets or Apostles who will come after me and no new religion will be born. Therefore, O man, judge correctly and understand the words which I have spoken to you.
"I have left you two things, and if you hold fast and follow them, you will not be lost forever, that is the Qur’an and my Sunnah.
“Must those who hear my words, also convey to others. May the latter better understand my words than those who continue to hear from me.
“Yes Allah! Have I told you?”
While the Prophet ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ said that Rabi'ah repeated it sentence by sentence, asking the crowd to guard it mindfully. The Prophet ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ also assigned him to question them for example; Rasulullah ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ “Today what is this?” They said, "Haji Akbar's Day!"
The Prophet said again, “Tell them, that your blood and treasures by God are sanctified, like this holy day, until the time comes when you all meet God.”
After arriving at the conclusion of his words the Prophet said again: “Yes Allah! Have I told you?!” Then simultaneously from all corners of people replied: “Ya!”
Then the Prophet said, “Yes Allah, watch this!”
Finished The Prophet ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ delivered his last sermon, the Prophet ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ came down from his camel called al-Qashwa. The Prophet ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ was still in that place until the time of Dzhuhur and Ashar prayers. Then climb back up the camel to Shakharat.
At that time the Prophet read the word of Allah to his people, namely, the letter of al-Maidah verse 3, which means;
“Today I have perfected for you your religion, and I have sufficient My favor over you, and I Ridho Islam to be your religion.” (QS. Al-Maidah 3).
While listening to the verse, Abu Bakr.
