Sahih Ibn Hibban 3944

Translation

✧ “Bathe, wrap yourself with a cloth, and enter iḥrām.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed in the mosque, then mounted al-Qaṣwāʾ. When his she-camel stood him upright on the open desert, I looked as far as my sight could reach: in front of him were riders and walkers, on his right the like, on his left the like, and behind him the like, while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was among us and the Qurʾān was being sent down upon him, and he knew its interpretation; whatever he did, we did. He assumed iḥrām with tawḥīd: “Labbayka allāhumma labbayka, labbayka lā sharīka laka labbayka, inna al-ḥamda wa al-niʿmata laka wa al-mulka lā sharīka laka.” The people assumed iḥrām with this same talbiyah, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not correct them in any of it, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ kept to his talbiyah. Jābir said: “We intended nothing but ḥajj; we did not know ʿumrah, until we came to the House with him. He touched the corner, then ramal in three rounds and walked four. Then he went forward to the Station of Ibrāhīm and recited: ‘And take the Station of Ibrāhīm as a place of prayer.’ He placed the Station between himself and the House. My father used to say—and I do not know but that he mentioned it only from the Prophet ﷺ—that he used to recite in the two rakʿahs: ‘Say: He is Allah, the One’ and ‘Say: O disbelievers.’ Then he returned to the corner and touched it, then he went out through the gate to al-Ṣafā. When he drew near al-Ṣafā, he recited: ‘Indeed, al-Ṣafā and al-Marwah are among the symbols of Allah.’ ‘We begin with what Allah began with,’ and he began with al-Ṣafā. He climbed it until he saw the House, then he faced the qiblah, declared Allah’s oneness, magnified Him, and said: ‘There is no god but Allah alone, with no partner; His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things. There is no god but Allah alone; He fulfilled His promise, aided His servant, and defeated the confederates alone.’ Then he supplicated between that, saying the like three times. Then he descended to al-Marwah until his feet went down into the bottom of the valley, he hastened; when he climbed out, he walked until he came to al-Marwah, and he did on al-Marwah as he had done on al-Ṣafā. When it was the last circuit on al-Marwah, he said: ‘Had I known beforehand what came later, I would not have brought the sacrificial animal and would have made it an ʿumrah. Whoever of you does not have a sacrificial animal, let him exit iḥrām and make it an ʿumrah.’ Surāqah b. Juʿshum stood up and said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, is this for this year of ours or forever?’ He said—and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ interlaced his fingers one into the other: ‘The ʿumrah has entered into the ḥajj’ twice, ‘no, rather forever and ever; no, rather forever and ever.’ ʿAlī arrived from Yemen with the Prophet’s ﷺ camels, and he found Fāṭimah among those who had exited iḥrām; she had worn dyed clothes and applied kohl, and he disapproved of that. She said: ‘My father ordered me to do this.’ He said: ‘ʿAlī used to say in Iraq: I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, angry with Fāṭimah for what she had done, and I told him that I disapproved of it. He ﷺ said: “She has spoken truth. What did you say when you assumed iḥrām for ḥajj?” I said: “I said: O Allah, I assume iḥrām with what Your Messenger has assumed iḥrām.” He said: “I have the sacrificial animal, so do not exit iḥrām.”’” He said: “The total number of sacrificial animals that ʿAlī brought from Yemen and that the Prophet ﷺ brought was one hundred.” He said: “All the people exited iḥrām and shortened their hair, except the Prophet ﷺ and those who had sacrificial animals.”
