Category: Q n A

I asked Ibn `Abbas about Hajj-at-Tamattu`. He ordered me to perform it. I asked him about the Hadi
(sacrifice). He said, “You have to slaughter a camel, a cow or a sheep, or you may share the Hadi with
the others.” It seemed that some people disliked it (Hajj-at-Tamattu`). I slept and dreamt as if a person
was announcing: “Hajj Mabrur and accepted Mut’ah (Hajj-at-Tamattu`)” I went to Ibn `Abbas and
narrated it to him. He said, “Allah is Greater. (That was) the tradition of Abu Al-Qasim (i.e. Prophet).
Narrated Shu`ba that the call in the dream was. “An accepted `Umra and Hajj-Mabrur. ”

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) (p.b.u.h) saw a man driving his Badana (sacrificial camel). He said, “Ride on it.” The
man said, “It is a Badana.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Ride on it.” He (the man) said, “It is a Badana.” The
Prophet said, “Ride on it.” And on the second or the third time he (the Prophet (ﷺ) ) added, “Woe to you.”

The Prophet (ﷺ) saw a man driving a Badana. He said, “Ride on it.” The man replied, “It is a Badana.”
The Prophet (ﷺ) said (again), “Ride on it.” He (the man) said, “It is a Badana.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said thrice,
“Ride on it.”

During the last Hajj (Hajj-al-Wada`) of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) he performed `Umra and Hajj. He drove a
Hadi along with him from Dhul-Hulaifa. Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) started by assuming Ihram for `Umra and
Hajj. And the people, too, performed the `Umra and Hajj along with the Prophet. Some of them
brought the Hadi and drove it along with them, while the others did not. So, when the Prophet (ﷺ) arrived
at Mecca. he said to the people, “Whoever among you has driven the Hadi, should not finish his Ihram
till he completes his Hajj. And whoever among you has not (driven) the Hadi with him, should
perform Tawaf of the Ka`ba and the Tawaf between Safa and Marwa, then cut short his hair and finish
his Ihram, and should later assume Ihram for Hajj; but he must offer a Hadi (sacrifice); and if anyone
cannot afford a Hadi, he should fast for three days during the Hajj and seven days when he returns
home. The Prophet (ﷺ) performed Tawaf of the Ka`ba on his arrival (at Mecca); he touched the (Black
Stone) corner first of all and then did Ramal (fast walking with moving of the shoulders) during the
first three rounds round the Ka`ba, and during the last four rounds he walked. After finishing Tawaf of
the Ka`ba, he offered a two rak`at prayer at Maqam Ibrahim, and after finishing the prayer he went to
Safa and Marwa and performed seven rounds of Tawaf between them and did not do any deed
forbidden because of Ihram, till he finished all the ceremonies of his Hajj and sacrificed his Hadi on
the day of Nahr (10th day of Dhul-Hijja). He then hastened onwards (to Mecca) and performed Tawaf
of the Ka`ba and then everything that was forbidden because of Ihram became permissible. Those who
took and drove the Hadi with them did the same as Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) did.

” ‘Aishah informed me about the Hajj and ‘Umra (together) of the Prophet (ﷺ) and so did the people who were with him (during the Hajj and ‘Umra) and narration similar to the narration of the Ibn ‘Umar (previous hadith)

`Abdullah (bin `Abdullah) bin `Umar said to his father, “Stay here, for I am afraid that it (affliction
between Ibn Zubair and Al-Hajjaj) might prevent you from reaching the Ka`ba.” Ibn `Umar said, “(In
this case) I would do the same as Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) did, and Allah has said, ‘Verily, in Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ),
you have a good example (to follow).’ So, I make you, people, witness that I have made `Umra
compulsory for me.” So he assumed lhram for `Umra. Then he went out and when he reached Al-
Baida’, he assumed Ihram for Hajj and `Umra (together) and said, “The conditions (requisites) of Hajj
and `Umra are the same.” He, then brought a Hadi from Qudaid. Then he arrived (at Mecca) and
performed Tawaf (between Safa and Marwa) once for both Hajj and `Umra and did not finish the
lhram till he had finished both Hajj and `Umra.

The Prophet (ﷺ) set out from Medina with over one thousand of his companions (at the time of the Treaty
of Hudaibiya) and when they reached Dhul-Hulaifa, the Prophet (ﷺ) garlanded his Hadi and marked it and
assumed Ihram for `Umra.

I twisted with my own hands the garlands for the Budn of the Prophet (ﷺ) who garlanded and marked
them, and then made them proceed to Mecca; Yet no permissible thing was regarded as illegal for him
then.

I said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! What is wrong with the people, they have finished their Ihram but you have
not?” He said, “I matted my hair and I have garlanded my Hadi, so I will not finish my Ihram till I
finished my Hajj .”

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) used to send the Hadi from Medina and I used to twist the garlands for his Hadi and
he did not keep away from any of these things which a Muhrim keeps away from.
