That he heard Jabir ibn 'Abdullah say: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, circumambulated the House, and [ran] between al-Safa and al-Marwah, on his mount during the Farewell Pilgrimage, so that the people could see him, and so that he could be elevated [above them], and so that they could ask him, for the people had crowded around him. (1)

1881 — Musaddad narrated to us, Khalid ibn 'Abdullah narrated to us, Yazid ibn Abi Ziyad narrated to us, from 'Ikrimah, from Ibn 'Abbas: That the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, arrived in Mecca while he was ill, so he circumambulated on his mount. Whenever he came to the Corner, he touched the Corner with a crooked staff. When he finished his circumambulation, he made his mount kneel and prayed two rak'ahs. (2)

(1) Its chain is authentic. Yahya: he is Ibn Sa'id al-Qattan, and Ibn Jurayj: he is 'Abd al-Malik ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz al-Umawi, and Abu al-Zubayr: he is Muhammad ibn Muslim ibn Tadrus al-Asadi, their freed slave.
Muslim (1273) and al-Nasa'i in al-Kubra (3955) also narrated it via multiple routes from Ibn Jurayj, with this chain.
It is in Musnad Ahmad (14415).
It will come in extended form under number (1905).

(2) Authentic with its supporting witnesses. Yazid ibn Abi Ziyad — although he is weak — was corroborated on the mention of touching the Corner by 'Ubaydullah ibn 'Abdullah ibn 'Utbah, from Ibn 'Abbas, as will come. And he was corroborated on his statement "while he was ill" by Sa'id ibn Jubayr and Tawus, as a mursal report, as will come. And his statement "then he prayed two rak'ahs" has a supporting witness from the long hadith of Jabir on the Farewell Pilgrimage.
Al-Bukhari (1612), (1613), (1632), and (5293), and al-Tirmidhi (881) also narrated it via the route of 'Ikrimah, from Ibn 'Abbas, with the wording: "The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, circumambulated the House on a camel; whenever he came to the Corner, he pointed to it." It is in Musnad Ahmad (2772).
It has already preceded via the route of 'Ubaydullah ibn 'Abdullah ibn 'Utbah, from Ibn 'Abbas, under number (1877), with the wording: "That the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, circumambulated during the Farewell Pilgrimage on a camel, touching the Corner with a crooked staff." It is with al-Bukhari (1607). =
