\nNarrated Abu Musa:\n\n
I came upon Allah's Apostle when he was at Al-Batha. He asked me, \"Have you intended to perform \nthe Hajj?\" I replied in the affirmative. He asked, \"For what have you assumed lhram?\" I replied,\" I \nhave assumed Ihram with the same intention as that of the Prophet .\" The Prophet said, \"You have \ndone well! Go and perform Tawaf round the Ka`ba and between Safa and Marwa.\" Then I went to one \nof the women of Bani Qais and she took out lice from my head. Later, I assumed the Ihram for Hajj. \nSo, I used to give this verdict to the people till the caliphate of `Umar. When I told him about it, he \nsaid, \"If we take (follow) the Holy Book, then it orders us to complete Hajj and `Umra (Hajj-at- \nTamattu`) and if we follow the tradition of Allah's Apostle then Allah's Apostle did not finish his \nlhram till the Hadi had reached its destination (had been slaughtered). (i.e. Hajj-al-Qiran). (See Hadith \nNo. 630)","english_grade":"Sahih","last_updated":null,"xrefs":""}
