Distribution of Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi Wa sallam's) sacred hair.

Distribution of Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi Wa sallam's) sacred hair.

When the moment during the Haj arrived, to get the sacred hair removed, the distributor of all gifts of this world and hereafter i.e. the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi Wa sallam) , after making the sacrifice, gave the sign to barber to remove the sacred hair from the right side of His head, the barber was fortunate to do so, then the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi Wa sallam) bestowed the removed hair to the Sahaba (companions) standing there and again told to remove the hair from the other side of the head and subsequently asked, "where is Hadhrat Abu Talha (May Allah SWT be well pleased with him)?"
He then gave His sacred hair to Hadhrat Abu Talha (May Allah SWT be well pleased with him); accordingly, the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi Wa sallam) told Hadhrat Abu Talha (May Allah SWT be well pleased with him) to distribute the sacred hair amongst the Sahaba. (Muslim Shareef, Vol. No: 1, Pg. No: 421)

It is a great favour for us that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi Wa sallam) Himself gave His sacred hair to the Sahaba and ordered them to distribute them amongst the others.

Later, the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi Wa sallam) went to Holy Mecca to perform the Tawaf of Ziyarat (pilgrimage) and offered His Salaat Ul Dhuhr at the same place.

The fourth, fifth and sixth day of Haj:

The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi Wa sallam) came to Mina, and stayed there till 13th. Every day He performed the Rami of the three Jamerat.

On 13th He arrived in Holy Mecca and after performing the Tawaf of Vida (parting Tawaf) He (Sallallahu alaihi Wa sallam) advanced towards Mecca.
