Volume 1, Book 6, Number 314:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
On the 1st of Dhul-Hijja we set out with the intention of performing Hajj. Allah’s Apostle said,
“Any one who likes to assume the Ihram for ‘Umra he can do so. Had I not brought the Hadi with me,
I would have assumed the Ihram for ‘Umra. “Some of us assumed the Ihram for ‘Umra while the oth –
ers assumed the Ihram for Hajj. I was one of those who assumed the Ihram for ‘Umra. I got menses
and kept on menstruating until the day of ‘Arafat and complained of that to the Prophet . He told me
to postpone my ‘Umra, undo and comb my hair, and to assure the Ihram of Hajj and I did so. On the
right of Hasba, he sent my brother ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Bakr with me to At-Tah’im, where I as –
sumed the Ihram for’Umra in lieu of the previous one. Hisham said, “For that (‘Umra) no Hadi, fasting
or alms were required.
