"And proclaim to the people the Hajj; they will come to you on foot [meaning: walking], and on every lean camel [meaning: and riding on those emaciated from the length of the journey] coming from every deep [meaning: distant] pass."
Muhammad said: "Rijalan" is the plural of "rajil" (one who walks), similar to "sahib" and "sihab." He said "ya'tina" (they come - feminine plural) denoting the collective group of camels.
Yahya, from Ibrahim ibn Muhammad, from Salih Mawla al-Taw'ama, from Ibn Abbas who said: "Abraham the Prophet, peace be upon him, stood by the House and proclaimed the Hajj to the people, and the people of the East and the people of the West heard it."
In the Tafsir of Qatada: That Abraham called out, "O people, indeed Allah has a House, so perform Hajj to it."
Surat al-Hajj from (verse 28 to verse 33).
﴿وَأَذِّنْ فِي النَّاسِ بِالْحَجِّ يَأْتُوكَ رجَالًا﴾ أَيْ: مُشَاةً ﴿وَعَلَى كُلِّ ضَامِرٍ﴾ أَيْ: وَرُكْبَانًا عَلَى ضُمُرٍ مِنْ طُولِ السَّفَرِ ﴿يَأْتِينَ مِنْ كُلِّ فج عميق﴾ بعيد.
قَالَ مُحَمَّد: (رجَالًا) جَمْعُ رَاجِلٍ، مِثْلُ صَاحِبٍ وَصِحَابٍ، وَقَالَ (يَأْتِين) عَلَى مَعْنَى جَمَاعَةِ الإِبِلِ.
يَحْيَى: عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ صَالِحٍ مَوْلَى التَّوْءَمَةِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: " قَامَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ النَّبِيُّ عليه السلام عِنْدَ الْبَيْتِ؛ فَأَذَّنَ فِي النَّاسِ بِالْحَجِّ، فَسَمِعَ أَهْلُ الْمَشْرِقِ وَأَهْلُ الْمَغْرِبِ ".
وَفِي تَفْسِيرِ قَتَادَةَ: أَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ نَادَى: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِن لله بَيْتا فحجوه.
سُورَة الْحَج من (آيَة ٢٨ آيَة ٣٣).
