Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) arrived in Makkah Mukarramah on the morning of the fourth of Dhul-Hijjah. Then when we reached Makkah Mukarramah, he ordered us to perform ‘Umrah and then come out of Ihram. And he said:“Come out of Ihram and you may have intercourse with your wives.”Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that the Prophet did not make intercourse with wives obligatory upon the companions, but he made it permissible for them (that if they felt the need, they could fulfill their desire).
