It is narrated from Yazid bin Asam that Lady Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) married me at the place of Sarif on his return from Makkah, at a time when we had become lawful (i.e., were out of the state of Ihram).

Sayyiduna Abu Rafi’ (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) married Sayyidah Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her), he was not in the state of Ihram, and when he consummated the marriage, he was also not in the state of Ihram. And I was the messenger between the two of them.

Abdullah bin Abi Qatadah narrated that my father went out with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) at the time of the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah (and went ahead to scout the enemy), his companions had entered into the state of Ihram, but Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) had not entered into Ihram. He saw a wild donkey, hunted it with a spear, and ate its meat. He said: Then I submitted: O Messenger of Allah! I saw a wild donkey and hunted it by throwing a spear or an arrow at it. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said to the companions: "Eat," and all of them were in the state of Ihram.

Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Our caravan was traveling in the state of Ihram, and I (Abu Qatadah, may Allah be pleased with him) was not in Ihram, when suddenly I saw a wild donkey. I mounted my horse and hunted it. My companions ate its meat while they were in the state of Ihram, and I did not eat. When they reached the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), they asked him (about this matter). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) inquired: "Did you signal to it? Did you hunt it?" or he said, "Did you kill it?" They replied: No. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then eat it."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sa'b bin Jathamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that wild donkey meat was presented to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), but he (peace be upon him) returned it and said: "We are in the state of Ihram; we cannot eat game."

It is narrated from Mu'adh bin Abdur Rahman bin Uthman Taymi that his father Abdur Rahman said: We were on a journey with Sayyiduna Talhah bin Ubaidullah (may Allah be pleased with him) when a bird was presented to him as a gift, and all of them were in the state of ihram, and Sayyiduna Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) was sleeping. Some of us ate the meat of that bird and some abstained from it. When Sayyiduna Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) woke up, the people informed him about it. So Sayyiduna Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) supported those who had eaten the meat and said: We ate the meat of game with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).

Sayyiduna Sa'b bin Jathamah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by me at the place of Abwa or Waddan, so I presented him with the meat of a wild donkey, but he returned it to me. When he saw sadness on my face, he said: "We did not need to return it, but at this time we are in the state of Ihram."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Fadl bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that during the Farewell Pilgrimage, he was riding behind the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when a woman from the tribe of Khath'am came and said, "O Messenger of Allah! Allah has made the obligation of Hajj upon His servants, but my father is very old, he cannot sit on a mount, and he has not performed Hajj. Can I perform Hajj on his behalf?" He replied, "Yes, you can." Abu Muhammad Imam Darimi (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked: "Is this your opinion as well?" He replied: "Yes."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Fadl bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a woman asked the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him): "My father is so old that he cannot sit on a mount, and Hajj has become obligatory upon him. What should I do?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Perform Hajj on his behalf."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that during the Farewell Pilgrimage, a woman asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for a religious ruling, and Sayyiduna Fadl ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), the brother of Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), was riding behind the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). She said: O Messenger of Allah! Allah has made Hajj obligatory upon His servants, but my father is very old and cannot even sit on a mount. If I perform Hajj on his behalf, will his Hajj be fulfilled? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "Yes, it will be fulfilled."
