Narrated ‘Abdul ‘Aziz bin Rufai:
I asked Anas bin Malik, “Tell me what you remember from Allah’s Apostle (regarding these ques –
tions): Where did he offer the Zuhr and ‘Asr prayers on the day of Tarwiya (8th day of Dhul-Hajja)?”
He relied, “(He offered these prayers) at Mina.” I asked, “Where did he offer the ‘Asr prayer on the day
of Nafr (i.e. departure from Mina on the 12th or 13th of Dhul-Hijja)?” He replied, “At Al-Abtah,” and
then added, “You should do as your chiefs do.”
Volume 2, Book 26, Number 716:
Narrated ‘Abdul ‘Aziz:
I went out to Mina on the day of Tarwiya and met Anas going on a donkey. I asked him, “Where
did the Prophet offer the Zuhr prayer on this day?” Anas replied, “See where your chiefs pray and
pray similarly.”
Volume 2, Book 26, Number 717:

The Prophet led us in a two-Rakat prayer at Mina although our number was more than ever and

Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Masud:
I offered (only a) two Rakat prayer with the Prophet (at Mina), and similarly with Abu Bakr and

Volume 2, Book 26, Number 704:
Narrated Nafi’:
Ibn ‘Umar intended to perform Hajj in the year when Al-Hajjaj attacked Ibn Az-Zubair. Somebody
said to Ibn ‘Umar, “There is a danger of an impending war between them.” Ibn ‘Umar said, “Verily, in
Allah’s Apostle you have a good example. (And if it happened as you say) then I would do the same as
Allah’s Apostle had done. I make you witness that I have decided to perform ‘Umra.” Then he set out
and when he reached Al-Baida’, he said, “The ceremonies of both Hajj and ‘Umra are similar. I make
you witness that I have made Hajj compulsory for me along with ‘Umra.” He drove (to Mecca) a Hadi
which he had bought from (a place called) Qudaid and did not do more than that. He did not
slaughter the Hadi or finish his Ihram, or shave or cut short his hair till the day of slaughtering the
sacrifices (10th Dhul-Hijja). Then he slaughtered his Hadi and shaved his head and considered the
first Tawaf (of Safa and Marwa) as sufficient for Hajj and ‘Umra. Ibn ‘Umar said, “Allah’s Apostle did
the same.”
Volume 2, Book 26, Number 720:
Narrated Um Al-Fadl:
The people doubted whether the Prophet was observing the fast on the Day of ‘Arafat, so I sent
something for him to drink and he drank it.
Volume 2, Book 26, Number 705:
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 –
formed Tawaf of the Ka’ba and his intention was not ‘Umra alone (but Hajj and ‘Umra together).’ ”
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
ask him nor anyone of the previous ones. And all these people, on entering Mecca, would not start
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.”
