Whoever does not achieve the servitude for which he was created, then this, O my Guardian, I have introduced you in this chapter to their positions, and what remains is the definition of their origins and the designation of the conditions of the rulers of the second class among them.

The pronunciation of the Talbiyah is his saying, “Labbayk,” just as God is the Greatest legislated the takbeer of the ihram in the prayer, so some of them made it obligatory to meet the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and its form is “Labbayk, O God.” “Labbayyak,” “Labbayk.” God of creation, it is obligatory according to these words, and according to the majority of scholars, it is desirable, and with it I say, and pronouncing it is better. They differed in adding to this wording and in changing it, as we said.

Abu Hurairah’s saying: “I memorized two vessels from the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and as for one of them, I scattered it, and as for the other, if I scattered it, this pharynx would be cut off from me.” The jurist Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Ubaid narrated it to me.
