Volume 3, Book 27, Number 20:
Narrated ‘Amr bin Dinar:
We asked Ibn ‘Umar whether a man who had performed the Tawaf of the Ka’ba but had not per –
formed the Tawaf between As-Safa and Al-Marwa yet, was permitted to have sexual relation with
his wife. He replied, “The Prophet arrived (at Mecca) and circumambulated the Ka’ba seven times
and then offered a two Rak’at prayer behind Maqam-lbrahim and then performed the going (Tawaf)
between As-Safa and Al-Marwa (seven times) (and verily, in Allah’s Apostle you have a good ex –
ample.” And we asked Jabir bin ‘Abdullah (the same question) and he replied, “He should not go near
her till he has finished the going (Tawaf) between As-Safa and Al-Marwa.”
Volume 3, Book 27, Number 5:
Narrated ‘Ursa bin Az-Zubair:
I asked ‘Aisha (whether the Prophet had performed ‘Umra in Rajab). She replied, “Allah’s Apostle
never performed any ‘Umra in Rajab.”
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.”

Volume 3, Book 27, Number 10:
Narrated Ata:
I heard Ibn ‘Abbas saying, “Allah’s Apostle asked an Ansari woman (Ibn ‘Abbas named her but ‘Ata’
forgot her name), ‘What prevented you from performing Hajj with us?’ She replied, ‘We have a
camel and the father of so-and-so and his son (i.e. her husband and her son) rode it and left one
camel for us to use for irrigation.’ He said (to her), ‘Perform ‘Umra when Ramadan comes, for ‘Umra
in Ramadan is equal to Hajj (in reward),’ or said something similar.”
Volume 3, Book 27, Number 11:
Narrated Aisha:
We set out along with Allah’s Apostle shortly before the appearance of the new moon (crescent) of
the month of Dhi-l-Hijja and he said to us, “Whoever wants to assume Ihram for Hajj may do so; and
whoever wants to assume Ihram for ‘Umra may do so. Hadn’t I brought the Hadi (animal for sacrifi –
cing) (with me), I would have assumed Ihram for ‘Umra.” (‘Aisha added,): So some of us assumed
Ihram for ‘Umra while the others for Hajj. I was amongst those who assumed Ihram for ‘Umra. The
day of ‘Arafat approached and I was still menstruating. I complained to the Prophet (about that) and
he said, “Abandon your ‘Umra, undo and comb your hair, and assume Ihram for Hajj;.” When it was
the night of Hasba, he sent ‘Abdur Rahman with me to At-Tan’im and I assumed Ihram for ‘Umra
(and performed it) in lieu of my missed ‘Umra.
