al-Albaani mentioned in al-Dha`eefah:
“When he (The Messenger of Allaah صلى الله عليه وسلم) came to Madeenah, the Women and children began to sing:
Tala`al Badru `Alaynaa (The full moon rose over us)
Min Thaneeyaatil Wadaa` (From the valley of Wadaa` (one of the entrances into Madeenah))
Wajaba-sh Shukru `Alaynaa (Giving thanks is mandatory upon us)
Maa Da`aa Lillaahi Daa` (As long as there is a caller calling to Allaah).”
------------------------
Ruling: “Dha`eef”
------------------------

It was reported by Abu al-Hasan al-Khula`eey in “al-Fawaa’id” (2/59) and al-Baihaqee in “Dalaa’il al-Nubuwwah” (2/233), fromFadhal Ibn al-Hibaab who said:
I heard `Ubaidullaah Ibn Muhammad Ibn `Aaishah saying…and he mentioned the Hadeeth.
--
Quote:
" The Isnaad of this narration is weak; the narrators aretrustworthy, but there are three or more narrators missingfrom its chain so it is considered “Mu`dhal”.
--
Quote:
" [TN: Ibn `Aaishah died in the year 228 AH, and was as such, at least 120 years away from the event of the Hijrah making absolutely clear, the wide broken link between the narratorand the narration.]"
--------------------------------------------
Quote: “Imam Bayhaqi (rahimahullah) and others have recorded this narration with a broken chain, as pointed outby ‘Allamah ‘Iraqi and Hafiz Ibn Hajar(rahimahumallah). (Dalailun Nubuwwah, vol. 5 pg. 266, Al Fawaid of Khila’i, Hadith: 1194. Refer: Al Mughni ‘An Hamlil Asfar, Hadith: 2191 and Fathul Bari, Hadith: 3925, vol. 7 pg. 261)
-------------------------------------------
*Note: Ibn `Aaishah is one of the Shuyookh (*Teachers) of Imaam Ahmad (and Abd Dawood), and he narrated it through Irsaal (i.e. omitting the names of his teachers). And this is what al-Haafidh al-`Iraaqee mentioned in his checking of “al-Ihyaa’” (2/244).
--
Quote: "But Ibn al-Qayyim refuted it (i.e. the statement of al-Baihaqee) in “al-Zaad al-Ma`aad” (3/13), saying:
“It is a clear conjecture because (the valley) “Thaniyyaat al-Wadaa`” is in the direction of al-Shaam (i.e. to the north of Madeenah); people coming from Makkah to Madeenah do not even see it, and nor does anyone pass through it except those who are going to (or coming from) al-Shaam.” [al-Dha`eefah (2/63)]
--
Ibn al-Hajar also graded this narration as “Mu`dhal” (weak due to two or three consecutive narrators missing from its chain). [Fath al-Baaree (7/261)]
*Note: He also said: “Perhaps it may have happened when the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم returned from the Tabook expedition (Ghazwah).”[Fath al-Baaree (7/262)]
--
Imam Al-Baihaqi said (in “Dalaa’il al-Nubuwwah”), and from him Ibn Katheer reported it in “al-Bidaayah wal-Nihaayah”, that al-Baihaqi said: “This is how our scholars have reported it, that this was said (by the people of Madeenah), when (the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم) came (to Madeenah) from Makkah;and not when he came to Madeenah through the valley of Wadaa` (after the battle of) Tabook.”
--
*Also Note: Some historians have said that there are two“Thaniyyaat al-Wadaa`”, what is confirmed is the one to the north, in the direction of al-Shaam. But there is dispute regarding the one in the direction of Makkah.
----------------------------
Regardless of which Direction/Valley…
People of Madeenah Celebrated & Sang:
“Tala’al Badru ‘Alayna” @ The Time of Prophet(s) period!
--
--
Narrated Syeduna Anas ibn Malik: ...The news that Allah's Prophet(s) had come circulated in Medina. The people came out and were eagerly looking and saying "Allah's Prophet has come! Allah's Prophet has come! So the Prophet(s) went on till he alighted near the house of Abu Ayub-al-Ansari....(Part of a longer hadith) [Sahih Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 58, Number 250]
--
Anas ibn Maalik may Allaah be pleased with him is the same, as he said:
“I walked among the boys, who were saying, 'Muhammad has arrived.' I ran (to see him), but I did not see anything. Then they were saying, 'Muhammad has arrived.' I ran (to see him), but did not see anything ... until Muhammad came along with his companion Abu Bakr. We were at some stony suburbs of Madeenah; then a man from Madeenah sent us to proclaim the arrival of the Prophet’s and his companion to the Ansaar.Around five hundred (500) people from the Ansaar werewaiting to welcome them.
The Ansaar said to them, 'You are safe and obeyed. So theProphet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) and his companion came in the middle of their crowd, and the people of Madeenah came out to see him to the extent that the virgins were on top of the roofs to see them, asking,'Which one is he? Which one is he?' He said, 'We have never seen such a scene before.' Anas ibn Maalik said, 'I saw him [the Prophet] the day that he entered upon us [he came to Madeenah] and the day that he died; I have never seen the people so happy like the day when he came, and I have never seen them so sad like the day that he died.' [Al-Bukhari in At-Taareekh As-Sagheer, and Al-Bayhaqi in Dalaa’il An-Nubuwwah]
--
Narrated Syedna Al-Bara bin Azib: The first people who came to us (in Medina) were Mus`ab bin `Umar and Ibn Um Maktum who were teaching Qur'an to the people. Then their came Bilal. Sa`d and `Ammar bin Yasir. After that `Umar bin Al-Khattab came along with twenty other companions of the Prophet(s).Later on the Prophet(s) himself (to Medina) and I had never seen the people of Medina so joyful as they were on the arrival of Allah's Apostle, for even the slave girls were saying, "Allah's Apostle has arrived!"
And before his arrival I had read the Sura starting with:-- "Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High" (87.1) together with other Surahs of Al-Mufassal. [Sahih Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 58, Number 262]
--
Narrated Syeduna Anas ibn Malik: When the Apostle of Allah(sallallahu alaihi wasallam) came to Medina, the Abyssiniansplayed for his coming due to joy; they played with spears. [Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 41, Number 4905]
--
There was an atmosphere of celebration and festival in Medina, the like of which had never been seen before. People lined up on both sides of the road to welcome the coming of theProphet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam); Men, women and children joyously greeted the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam).All the while, tambourines were being played and the following words were sung: Tala'al-Badru 'alayna, min thaniyyatil-Wada' wajaba al-shukru 'alayna, ma da'a lillahi da'…

Quote: Islam Q&A:
Quote: "They report that when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) came to Madeenah, thedaughters of al-Najjaar came out with daffs (hand-drums) and sang “Tala’a al-Badru ‘alayna min thaniyyat al-Widaa”,and the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to them, “Shake your tambourines, may Allaah bless you.”
*Note Quote: “The hadeeth about women beating the daff onjoyous occasions is saheeh, and this was done at the time of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), but it is not known that he said, “Shake your tambourines.” [End of Quote] https://islamqa.info/en/14017
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The little girls of Banu Najjar tribe sang the songs of joy andpraises of Allah from the roof-tops of their homes. To the accompaniment of tambourines (mizmar), they sang:
Tala’al-Badru ‘alayna
min thanniyatil-Wadaa’i
wajaba al-shukru ‘alayna
ma da’a lillahi daa’i
O the white moon rose over us
From the Valley of Wada’
And we owe it to show gratefulness
Where the call is to Allah
Ayyuh al-mab’uthu fina
ji’ta bi al-amri al-muta’
ji’ta sharrafata al-Madinah
marhaban ya khayri da’
O you who were raised among us
Coming with a work to be obeyed
You have brought to this City nobleness
Welcome! Best call to God’s way.
---
In other words, they expressed their joy by singing that the full moon has risen from behind the Farewell Mountain Pass and that we are duty-bound to thank Allah as long as the one who calls us to Allah is in our midst and that we present our perfect obedience to you who has been sent to us by Allah.
The above eulogy been reported by Imam Bayhaqi in his Dalaail u'n Nabuwwa, and is engraved on the hearts and minds of Muslims who recite it in the spritual gatherings or Majlis of Mawlid to celebrate the Birthday of Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wassallam).
--
It is also reported in Ihya of Imam Ghazali and in Anwaaru'l Muhammadiyah by an-Nabhani.
