It is reported that Ibn `Umar used to throw the Smallest Jamrah with seven small pebbles and say the Takbir on throwing each one. Then he would go ahead and stand for a long time facing the Qiblah with his hands raised, and invoke Allah and he used to stand for a long period. Then he would come to the Medium Jamrah and throw it with seven small pebbles, reciting the Takbir on throwing each one. Then he would turn left near the valley and stand facing the Qiblah raising his hands to invoke (Allah). Then he would come to the Jamrah near the `Aqabah (Jamrat Al-`Aqabah) and do the throwing with seven small pebbles, reciting the Takbir on throwing each one. Then, he would leave and not stay by it and say, "I saw Allah's Messenger as doing the same."
