Narrated Muhammad bin ‘AbdurRahman bin Nawfal Al-Qurashi:
I asked ‘Urwa bin Az-Zubair (regarding the Hajj of the Prophet). ‘Urwa replied, “Aisha narrated,
‘When the Prophet reached Mecca, the first thing he started with was the ablution, then he per –

Later Abu Bakr I performed the Hajj and the first thing he started with was Tawaf of the Ka’ba and it
was not ‘Umra alone (but Hajj and ‘Umra together). And then ‘Umar did the same. Then ‘Uthman
performed the Hajj and the first thing he started with was Tawaf of the Ka’ba and it was not ‘Umra
alone. And then Muawiya and ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar did the same. I performed Hajj with Ibn Az-
Zubair and the first thing he started with was Tawaf of the Ka’ba and it was not ‘Umra alone, (but
Hajj and ‘Umra together). Then I saw the Muhajirin (Emigrants) and Ansar doing the same and it
was not ‘Umra alone. And the last person I saw doing the same was Ibn ‘Umar, and he did not do an –
other ‘Umra after finishing the first. Now here is Ibn ‘Umar present amongst the people! They neither

with anything unless they had performed Tawaf of the Ka’ba, and would not finish their Ihram. And
no doubt, I saw my mother and my aunt, on entering Mecca doing nothing before performing Tawaf
of the Ka’ba, and they would not finish their lhram. And my mother informed me that she, her sister,

Az-Zubair and such and such persons had assumed lhram for ‘Umra and after passing their hands
over the Corner (the Black Stone) (i.e. finishing their Umra) they finished their Ihram.”
