Volume 3, Book 27, Number 30:
Narrated Abu Ishaq:
I heard Al-Bara’ saying, “The above Verse was revealed regarding us, for the Ansar on returning
from Hajj never entered their houses through the proper doors but from behind. One of the Ansar
came and entered through the door and he was taunted for it. Therefore, the following was revealed:
—
“It is not righteousness That you enter the houses from the back, But the righteous man is He who
fears Allah, Obeys His order and keeps away from What He has forbidden So, enter houses through
the proper doors.” (2.189)

Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet said, “Traveling is a kind of torture as it prevents one from eating, drinking and sleep –
ing properly. So, when one’s needs are fulfilled, one should return quickly to one’s family.”
Volume 3, Book 27, Number 32:
Narrated Zaid bin Aslam from his father:
I was with Ibn ‘Umar on the way to Mecca, and he got the news that Safiya bint Abu Ubaid was
seriously ill. So, he hastened his pace, and when the twilight disappeared, he dismounted and offered
the Maghrib and ‘Isha’ prayers together. Then he said, “I saw that whenever the Prophet had to
hasten when traveling, he would delay the Maghrib prayer and join them together (i.e. offer the
Maghrib and the Isha prayers together).”

Narrated Abu Musa Al-Ashari:
I came to the Prophet at Al-Batha’ while his camel was kneeling down and he asked me, “Have you
intended to perform the Hajj?” I replied in the affirmative. He asked me, ‘With what intention have
you assumed Ihram?” I replied, “I have assumed Ihram with the same intention as that of the Prophet.
He said, “You have done well. Perform the Tawaf of the Ka’ba and (the Sai) between As-safa and Al-

Marwa and then finish the Ihram.” So, I performed the Tawaf around the Ka’ba and the Sai) between
As-Safa and Al-Marwa and then went to a woman of the tribe of Qais who cleaned my head from
lice. Later I assumed the Ihram for Hajj. I used to give the verdict of doing the same till the caliphate
of ‘Umar who said, “If you follow the Holy Book then it orders you to remain in the state of Ihram till
you finish from Hajj, if you follow the Prophet then he did not finish his Ihram till the Hadi (sacri –
fice) had reached its place of slaughtering (Hajj-al-Qiran).”
Volume 3, Book 27, Number 6:
Narrated Qatada:
I asked Anas how many times the Prophet had performed ‘Umra. He replied, “Four times. 1. ‘Umra
of Hudaibiya in Dhi-l-Qa’da when the pagans hindered him; 2. ‘Umra in the following year in Dhi-
l-Qa’da after the peace treaty with them (the pagans); 3. ‘Umra from Al-Jr’rana where he distributed
the war booty.” I think he meant the booty (of the battle) of Hunain. I asked, “How many times did he
perform Hajj?” He (Anas) replied, “Once. “
Volume 3, Book 27, Number 7:
Narrated Qatada:
I asked Anas (about the Prophet’s ‘Umra) and he replied, “The Prophet performed ‘Umra when the
pagans made him return, and Umra of al-Hudaibiya (the next year), and another ‘Umra in Dhi-l-
Qa’da, and another ‘Umra in combination with his Hajj.”
Volume 3, Book 27, Number 8:
Narrated Hammam:
The Prophet performed four ‘Umra (three) in Dhi-l-Qa’da except the (one) ‘Umra which he per –
formed with his Hajj: His ‘Umra from Al-hudaibiya, and the one of the following year, and the one
from Al-Jr’rana where he distributed the booty (of the battle) of Hunain, and another ‘Umra with his
Hajj.
Volume 3, Book 27, Number 9:
Narrated Abu Ishaq:
I asked Masruq, ‘Ata’ and Mujahid (about the ‘Umra of Allah’s Apostle). They said, “Allah’s Apostle
had performed ‘Umra in Dhi-l-Qa’da before he performed Hajj.” I heard Al-Bara’ bin ‘Azib saying,
“Allah’s Apostle had performed ‘Umra in Dhi-l-Qa’da twice before he performed Hajj.”
