Allah’s Apostle stood beside me at Al-Hudaibiya and the lice were falling from my head in great

get my head shaved. Ka’b added, “This Holy Verse:–‘And if any of you is ill, or has ailment in his
scalp (2.196), etc. was revealed regarding me. “The Prophet then ordered me either to fast three days,

Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Ma’qal:
I sat with Ka’b bin ‘Ujra and asked him about the Fidya. He replied, “This revelation was revealed
concerning my case especially, but it is also for you in general. I was carried to Allah’s Apostle and
the lice were falling in great number on my face. The Prophet said, “I have never thought that your
ailment (or struggle) has reached to such an extent as I see. Can you afford a sheep?” I replied in the
negative. He then said, “Fast for three days, or feed six poor persons each with half a Sa of food.” (1 Sa
= 3 Kilograms approx.)
Volume 3, Book 28, Number 44:
Narrated Abdur-Rahman bin Abu Layla:
(Reporting the speech of Ka’b bin Umra) Allah’s Apostle saw him (i.e. Ka’b) while the lice were fall –
ing on his face. He asked (him), “Have your lice troubled you?” He replied in the affirmative. So, he
ordered him to get his head shaved while he was at Al-Hudaibiya. At that time they were not permit –
ted to finish their Ihram, and were still hoping to enter Mecca. So, Allah revealed the verses of Al-
Fidya. Allah’s Apostle ordered him to feed six poor persons with one Faraq of food or to slaughter one
sheep (as a sacrifice) or to fast for three days.

Volume 3, Book 28, Number 39:
Narrated Nafi:
That Abdullah and Salim said to ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar, “(You should not go for Hajj this year).” ‘Ab –
dullah bin ‘Umar replied, “We set out with the Prophet (to Mecca for performing ‘Umra) and e infi –
dels of Quraish prevented us from reaching the Ka’ba. Allah’s Apostle slaughtered his Budn (camels
for sacrifice) and got his head shaved.”
Volume 3, Book 28, Number 40:
Narrated Nafi:
When Abdullah bin ‘Umar set out for Mecca with the intentions performing ‘Umra in the period
of afflictions, he said, “If I should be prevented from reaching the Ka’ba, then I would do the same as
we did while in the company of Allah’s Apostle .” So, he assumed the Ihram for ‘Umra since the
Prophet had assumed the Ihram for ‘Umra in the year of Al-Hudaibiya. Then ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar
thought about it and said, “The conditions for both Hajj and ‘Umra are similar.” He then turned to –
wards his companions and said, “The conditions of both Hajj and ‘Umra are similar and I make you
witnesses that I have made the performance of Hajj obligatory for myself along with ‘Umra.” He then
performed one Tawaf (between As-Safa and Al-Marwa) for both of them (i.e. Hajj and (‘Umra) and
considered that to be sufficient for him and offered a Hadi.
