Sahih al-Bukhari 1724

Hadith text

Narrated Abu Musa:I came upon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) when he was at Al-Batha. He asked me, "Have you intended to perform the Hajj?" I replied in the affirmative. He asked, "For what have you assumed Ihram?" I replied," I have assumed Ihram with the same intention as that of the Prophet (ﷺ) ." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You have done well! Go and perform Tawaf round the Ka`ba and between Safa and Marwa." Then I went to one of the women of Bani Qais and she took out lice from my head. Later, I assumed the Ihram for Hajj. So, I used to give this verdict to the people till the caliphate of `Umar. When I told him about it, he said, "If we take (follow) the Holy Book, then it orders us to complete Hajj and `Umra (Hajj-at- Tamattu`) and if we follow the tradition of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did not finish his Ihram till the Hadi had reached its destination (had been slaughtered). (i.e. Hajj-al-Qiran). (See Hadith No)

Abu Musa bataate hain: Main Allah ke Rasool ke paas aaya jab woh Al-Batha mein the. Aap ne pucha: "Kya tumne Hajj ki niyyat ki hai?" Maine haan mein jawab diya. Aap ne pucha: "Tumne kis niyyat se Ihram baandha?" Maine jawab diya: "Maine Nabi jaisi niyyat se Ihram baandha." Nabi ne kaha: "Tumne achha kiya! Jaao, Ka'ba ka aur Safa-Marwa ka Tawaf karo." Phir main Bani Qais ki ek aurat ke paas gaya aur usne mere sar se jooen nikaali. Baad mein maine Hajj ka Ihram baandha. Isliye main logon ko yehi fatwa deta raha Umar ki khilafat tak. Jab maine unhe iske baare mein bataya, unhone kaha: "Agar hum Allah ki Kitaab ki pairvi karen, to woh humein Hajj-Umrah mukammal karne ka hukum deti hai (Hajj-at-Tamattu); aur agar hum Allah ke Rasool ki Sunnat ki pairvi karen, to Allah ke Rasool ne apna Ihram tab tak khatam nahi kiya jab tak Hadi apni jagah na pahunch gayi (zabah na ho gayi). (yaani Hajj-al-Qiran.)"
