Is there a complete narration of the Prophet's sermon in the Hadith of Al-Irbad bin Sariyah, which affected the Companions and made them weep?
The discussion revolves around the admonition given by the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, after the dawn prayer, which the Companions described as a farewell admonition, due to its profound effect on hearts and eyes. No specific text of that sermon has been reported, but Ibn Rajab stated that the expression "farewell admonition" indicates its eloquence and comprehensiveness. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, may have hinted at the proximity of his demise in it, as he did in the Farewell Pilgrimage and in other sermons, such as his sermon after praying over the martyrs of Uhud, where he warned against competing for worldly gains and enjoined adherence to the Book of Allah.
