Volume 2, Book 26, Number 671:
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
When Allah’s Apostle came to Mecca, he refused to enter the Ka’ba with idols in it. He ordered
(idols to be taken out). So they were taken out. The people took out the pictures of Abraham and Ish –
mael holding Azlams in their hands. Allah’s Apostle said, “May Allah curse these people. By Allah,
both Abraham and Ishmael never did the game of chance with Azlams.” Then he entered the Ka’ba
and said Takbir at its corners but did not offer the prayer in it.

Volume 2, Book 26, Number 672:
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
When Allah’s Apostle and his companions came to Mecca, the pagans circulated the news that a
group of people were coming to them and they had been weakened by the Fever of Yathrib
(Medina). So the Prophet ordered his companions to do Ramal in the first three rounds of Tawaf of
the Ka’ba and to walk between the two corners (The Black Stone and Yemenite corner). The Prophet
did not order them to do Ramal in all the rounds of Tawaf out of pity for them.

Narrated Ibn Abbas:

Its thorny bushes should not be cut, its game should not be chased, and its fallen things should not be
picked up except by one who would announce it publicly.”

Volume 2 Book 26 Hadith 635

Volume 2, Book 26, Number 635:
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
The people (of the Pre-lslamic Period) used to think that to perform ‘Umra during the months of
Hajj was one of the major sins on earth. And also used to consider the month of Safar as a forbidden
(i.e. sacred) month and they used to say, “When the wounds of the camel’s back heal up (after they
return from Hajj) and the signs of those wounds vanish and the month of Safar passes away then (at
that time) ‘Umra is permissible for the one who wishes to perform it.” In the morning of the 4th of
Dhul-Hijja, the Prophet and his companions reached Mecca, assuming Ihram for Hajj and he
ordered his companions to make their intentions of the Ihram for’Umra only (instead of Hajj) so they
considered his order as something great and were puzzled, and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! What kind
(of finishing) of Ihram is allowed?” The Prophet replied, “Finish the Ihram completely like a non-
Muhrim (you are allowed everything).”

The Prophet fixed Dhul-Hulaifa as the Miqat for the people of Medina, Al-Juhfa, for the people of
Sham, Yalamlam for the people of Yemen, and Qarn for the people of Najd. And these Mawaqlt are
for those living at those very places, and besides them for those who come through those places with
the intention of performing Hajj and Umra; and whoever is living inside these places can assume
lhram from his own dwelling place, and the people of Mecca can assume lhram from Mecca.
