Abu Hassan al-A'raj reported that a person from Bani Hujaim said to Ibn 'Abbas (RA): What is this religious verdict of yours which has engaged the attention of the people or which has become a matter of dispute among them that he who circumambulated the House can be free from Ihram? Thereupon he said: That is the Sunnah of your Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), even though you may not approve of it.
