Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that Sayyidah Dubaa’ah bint Zubair (may Allah be pleased with her) came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: I am a woman of heavy body and I intend to go for Hajj. Now, what do you command me regarding how I should enter into Ihram? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Enter into Ihram and stipulate with Allah that: O Allah! I will become lawful (i.e., come out of Ihram) wherever You stop me. Then she performed Hajj.

(Second chain) They said: O Messenger of Allah! I intend to perform Hajj, can I set a condition? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Yes. She said: Then how should I say it? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Say it like this: Labbayka Allahumma Labbayk, my place of becoming halal will be from the land where You detain me (I am present, O Allah! I am present, my place of becoming halal will be where You stop me).

Sayyida Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Messenger of Allah came to Sayyida Duba’ah bint Zubair (may Allah be pleased with her) when she was ill. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her:“Will you not travel with us on this journey?”while his intention was for the Farewell Pilgrimage (Hajjat al-Wada’). Sayyida Duba’ah (may Allah be pleased with her) said:“O Messenger of Allah! I am ill and I fear that my illness may prevent me.”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“You should enter into the state of Ihram for Hajj and say: ‘O Allah! The place where You restrain me, that will be the place where I become released from Ihram.’”

Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to Sayyida Duba’a bint Zubair (may Allah be pleased with her). She said: I intend to perform Hajj, but I am also ill. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Set out for Hajj and stipulate this condition: O Allah, wherever You stop me, there I will come out of the state of Ihram.

(Second chain) Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to Sayyida Duba’a bint Zubair (may Allah be pleased with her) and said to her:“Do you intend to perform Hajj?”She replied:“By Allah! I consider myself to be ill.”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her:“Set out for Hajj and stipulate that: ‘O Allah! I will become free from Ihram at the place where You restrain me.’”At that time, this lady was the wife of Sayyiduna Miqdad bin Aswad (may Allah be pleased with him).

It is narrated from Salim bin Abdullah that Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) did not like making conditions in Hajj, and he used to say: "Is the Sunnah of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) not sufficient for you? He (peace and blessings be upon him) did not make any condition."

Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me as a governor to my people (in the region of Yemen). When the season of Hajj arrived and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) set out for Hajj, I also intended to perform Hajj and came (to Makkah). I met him in the valley of Abtah. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me: "O Abdullah bin Qais! How did you enter into Ihram? That is, with what words did you make the intention?" I said: "I said that I am present for the Hajj which is the Hajj of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You have done very well." Then he asked: "Did you bring a sacrificial animal with you?" I said: "No." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then go and perform the Tawaf of the House (Ka'bah), and the Sa'i between Safa and Marwah, and then come out of Ihram." So I went and acted according to the command of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). After that, I went to a woman from my people; she washed my head with khatmi herb and searched for lice. After that, on the eighth of Dhul-Hijjah, I entered into Ihram for Hajj. Whatever the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had instructed me, I continued to give fatwa to people in the same way until his passing, and then during the era of Siddiq (Abu Bakr) and the era of Farooq (Umar), this continued. Suddenly, one day, I was standing near the Black Stone or the Maqam Ibrahim, narrating this matter, when a man came close to me and quietly said: "Do not be hasty in giving fatwa; the Commander of the Faithful, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), has issued a new ruling regarding the rites of Hajj." I loudly announced: "O people! Whoever has received a fatwa from us regarding the rites, let him wait; the Commander of the Faithful is coming, so follow him, and do as he says." When Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) arrived, I said to him: "O Commander of the Faithful! Have you issued a new ruling regarding the rites of Hajj?" He said: "Yes. The matter is that if we act upon the Book of Allah, it commands us to complete Hajj and Umrah, as Allah Almighty has said: {وَأَتِمُّوْا الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَۃَ لِلّٰہِ} (Complete Hajj and Umrah for Allah) (Surah Al-Baqarah: 196). And if we act upon the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also came out of Ihram after sacrificing the animal."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) asked Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): How did you recite the Talbiyah? He said: I said, "O Allah! I am entering into Ihram in the same way as Your Messenger entered into Ihram." Then he said: I also have a sacrificial animal with me. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Then you cannot come out of Ihram.

Narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The crescent of Dhul-Hijjah was about to appear when we set out for Hajj in the company of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever wishes to perform Umrah should enter into the state of Ihram for Umrah, and whoever wishes to enter into Ihram for Hajj should do so for Hajj. As for me, if I had not brought the sacrificial animal with me, I would have entered into Ihram for Umrah only. Sayyida (may Allah be pleased with her) says: Thus, some of the companions entered into Ihram for Umrah and some for Hajj. I also entered into Ihram for Umrah, but before entering Makkah, I began menstruating, and the day of Arafah was about to come while I was still in that state. I complained about this to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Leave your Umrah, untie your hair and comb it, and enter into Ihram for Hajj. So I did as instructed. When it was the night of the valley of Muhassab, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent my brother Abdur Rahman with me towards Tan’im. He made me ride behind him, and I entered into Ihram for Umrah. This Umrah was actually in place of the previous Umrah. In this way, Allah Almighty enabled me to perform both Hajj and Umrah, and in this situation, there was neither a sacrificial animal, nor fasting, nor charity.

It is narrated from Sayyida Asma bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: We set out for Hajj with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . When we reached Dhu’l-Hulayfah, he صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said:“Whoever among you wishes to enter into the state of Ihram for Hajj, let him do so, and whoever among you wishes to enter into the state of Ihram for Umrah, let him do so.”Sayyida Asma (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I, Sayyida Aisha, Sayyiduna Miqdad, and Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them all) entered into the state of Ihram for Umrah. (Musnad Ahmad: 27502)
