Abu Jamrah Duba'i said: I wanted to perform Hajj Tamattu', but people forbade me from doing so. So I went to the service of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him about this matter. He instructed me to perform Hajj Tamattu'. So I set out towards the House of Allah and, upon reaching there, I fell asleep. In my dream, I saw that someone came to me and said: "This is an accepted Umrah and a righteous Hajj." I narrated my dream to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), and he, astonished, repeatedly said: "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar! This act is the Sunnah of Abu al-Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him)." Then Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said regarding the Hadi (sacrificial animal) that it can be a camel, a cow, a goat, or a sheep, or a share can be taken in one animal.
