Hasan bin Hadiyah, may Allah have mercy on him, says that once I met Sayyiduna Ibn Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both. He asked me, "Which region are you from?" I replied, "I am from the people of Oman." He said, "Really?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Shall I not narrate to you the hadith which I heard from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him?" I said, "Why not?" He said, "I heard the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, say: 'I know of a region called Oman, on one side of which flows the sea. Performing one Hajj from there is more virtuous than performing two Hajj from another region.'"
