Abd Allaah bin Umar said A man asked the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم What clothing one should put on if one intend to put on ihram? He said He should not wear shirts, turbans, trousers, garments with head coverings and clothing which has any dye of waras or saffron; one should not put on shoes unless one cannot get sandals. If one cannot get sandals, one should wear the shoes, in which case one must cut them to come below the ankles.

The aforesaid tradition has also been transmitted by Ibn Umar from the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم to the same effect.

This tradition has also been transmitted through a different chain of narrators by Ibn Umar to the same effect. This version adds“A woman in the sacred state (while wearing ihram) should not be veiled or wear gloves. Abu Dawud said This tradition has also been transmitted by Hatim bin Ismail and Yahya bin Ayyub from Musa bin Uqbah from Nafi as reported by al Laith. This has also been narrated by Musa bin Tariq from Musa bin Uqbah as a statement of Ibn Umar (not of the Prophet). Similarly, this tradition has also been transmitted by Ubaid Allah bin Umar, Malik and Ayyub as a statement of Ibn Umar (not of the Prophet). Ibrahim bin Saeed al Madini narrated this tradition from Nafi on the authority of Ibn Umar from the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم A woman in the sacred state (wearing ihram) must not be veiled or wear gloves. Abu Dawud said Ibrahim bin Saeed al Madini is a traditionist of Madina. Not many traditions have been narrated by him.

Ibn Umar reported that the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم as saying A woman in the sacred state (wearing ihram) must not be veiled or wear gloves.

Abd Allaah bin Umar said that he heard the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم prohibiting women in the sacred state (wearing ihram) to wear gloves, veil (their faces) and to wear clothes with dye of waras or saffron on them. But afterwards they can wear any kind of clothing they like dyed yellow or silk or jewelry or trousers or shirts or shoes. Abu Dawud said Abdah and Muhammad bin Ishaq narrated this tradition from Muhammad bin Ishaq up to the words“And to wear clothes with dye of waras or saffron on them”. They did not mention the words after them.

Nafi said Ibn Umar felt cold and said Throw a garment over me, Nafi. I threw a hooded cloak over him. Thereupon he said Are you throwing this over me when the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم has forbidden those who are in sacred state to wear it?

Ibn Abbas said I heard the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم say When one who is wearing ihram cannot get a lower garment (loin cloth) he may ear trousers and when he cannot get sandals he may wear shoes. Abu Dawud said This is the tradition narrated by the narrators of Makkah. Its narrator from Basrah is Jabir bin Zaid. He mentioned only trousers and omitted the mention of cutting of the shoes.

Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: We were proceeding to Makkah along with the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . We pasted on our foreheads the perfume known as sakk at the time of wearing ihram. When one of us perspired, it (the perfume) came down on her face. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم saw, but did not forbid it.

Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: Salim ibn Abdullah said: Abdullah ibn Umar used to do so, that is to say, he would cut the shoes of a woman who put on ihram; then Safiyyah, daughter of Abu Ubayd, reported to him that Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated to her that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم gave licence to women in respect of the shoes (i. e. women are not required to cut the shoes). He, therefore, abandoned it.
