'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: We went with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) during the year of the Farewell Pilgrimage. We entered into the state of Ihram for 'Umrah. Then the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Who has the sacrificial animal with him, he should put on Ihram for Hajj along with 'Umrah, and should not put it off till he has completed them (both Hajj and 'Umrah). She said: When I came to Makkah I was having menses, I neither circumambulated the House, nor ran between as-Safa' and al-Marwah. I complained about it to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and he said: Undo your hair, comb it, and pronounce Talbiya for Hajj, and give up 'Umrah (for the time being), which I did. When we had performed the Hajj, the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) (may peace he upon him) sent me with Abdul Rahman bin Abu Bakr (RA) to Tan'im saying: This is the place for your 'Umrah. Those who had put on Ihram for 'Umrah circumambulated the House, and ran between al-Safa' and al-Marwah. They then put off Ihram and then made the last circuit after they had returned from Mina after performing their Hajj, but those who had combined the Hajj and the 'Umrah made only one circuit (as they had combined Hajj and 'Umrah).

'A'isha, the wife of the Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) , said: We went out with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) during the year of the Farewell Pilgrimage. There were some amongst us who had put on Ihram for 'Umrah and there were some who had put on Ihram for Hajj. (We proceeded on till) we came to Makkah. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: He who put on Ihram for 'Umrah but did not bring the sacrificial animal with him should put it off and he who put on Ihram for 'Umrah and he who had brought the sacrificial animal with him should not put it off until he had slaughtered the animal; and he who put on lhram for Hajj should complete it. A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: I was in the monthly period, and I remained in this state till the day of 'Arafa, and I had entered into the state of Ihram for 'Umrah. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) thus commanded me to undo my hair and comb them (again) and enter into the state of Ihram for Hajj, and abandon (the rites of 'Umrah). She ('A'isha) said: I did so, and when I had completed my Pilgrimage, the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) sent with me 'Abdul Rabman bin Abu Bakr (RA) and commanded me to (resume the rites of) 'Umrah at Tan'im the place where (I abandoned) 'Umrah and put on Ihram for Hajj (before completing 'Umrah).

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: We went with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) during the year of the Farewell Pilgrimage. I put on Ihram for 'Umrah and did not bring the sacrificial animal. The Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: He who has the sacrificial animal with him should enter into the state of Ihram for Hajj along with 'Umrah, and he should not put the Ihram off till he has completed both of them. She (Hadrat A'isha) said: The monthly period began. When it was the night of Arafa, I said to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ): I entered into the state of Ihram for 'Umrah, but now how should I perform the Hajj? Thereupon he said: Undo your hair and comb them, and desist from performing 'Umrah, and put on Ihram for Hajj She (A'isha, said: When I had completed my Hajj he commanded 'Abdul Rahman bin Abu Bakr (RA) to carry me behind him (on boneback) in order to enable me to resume the rituals of 'Umrah from Tan'im, the place where I abandoned its rituals.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: 'We went with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) (to Makkah). He said: He who intended among you to put on Ihram for Hajj and 'Umrah should do so. And he who intended to put on Ihram for Hajj may do so, and he who intended to put on Ihram for 'Umrah only may do so. A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) put on Ihram for Hajj and some people did that along with him. And some people put on Ihram for 'Umrah and Hajj (both), and some persons put on Ihram for 'Umrah only, and I was among those who put on Ihram for 'Umrah (only).

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: We went with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) (may peace be upon him? (in his) Farewell Pilgrimage near the time of the appearance of the new moon of Dhu'I-Hijja. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: He who amongst you intends to put on Ihram for 'Umrah may do so; had I not brought sacrificial animal along with me, I would have put on Ihram for 'Umrah. She (further said). There were some persons who put on Ihram for Umrs, and some persons who put on Ihram for hajj, and I was one of those who put on Ihram for 'Umrah. We went on till we reached Makkah, and on the day of 'Arafa I found myself in a state of menses, but I did not put off the Ihram for 'Umrah. I told about (this state of mine) to the Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) , whereupon he said: Abandon your 'Umrah, and undo the hair of your head and comb (them), and put on Ihram for Hajj. She ('A'isha) said: I did accordingly. When it was the night at Hasba and Allah enabled us to complete our Hajj, he (the Holy Prophet) sent with me Abdul Rahman bin Abu Bakr, and he mounted me behind him on his camel and took me to Tan'im and I put on Ihram for 'Umrah, and thus Allah enabled us to complete our Hajj and 'Umrah and (we were required to observe neither sacrifice nor alms nor fasting.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: We set out with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) just at the appearance of the new moon of Dhu'l- Hijja. We had no other intention but that of performing the Hajj, whereupon the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: He who among you intends to put on Ihram for 'Umrah should do so for 'Umrah. The rest of the hadith is the same.

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: We went with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) at the appearance of the new moon of Dhu'I-Hijja. There were amongst us those who had put on Ihram for 'Umrah, and those also who had put on Ihram both for Hajj and 'Umrah, and still those who had put on Ihram for Hajj (alone). I was one of those who had put on Ihram for 'Umrah (only). 'Urwa (one of the narrators) said: Allah enabled her (Hadrat A'isha) to complete both Hajj and 'Umrah (according to the way as mentioned above). Hisham (one of the narrators) said: She had neither the sacrificial animal nor (was she required to) fast, nor was she obliged to give alms.

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: We proceeded with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) during the year of the Farewell Pilgrimage. There were those amongst us who had put on Ihram for 'Umrah, and those who had put on Ihram both for Hajj and" 'Umrah, and those amongst us who had put on Ihram for Hajj (only), while the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had put on Ihram for Hajj (only). He who put on Ihram for 'Umrah put it off (after performing 'Umrah), and he who had put on Ihram for Hajj or for both Hajj and 'Umrah did not put it off before the day of sacrifice (10th of Dhu'I-Hijja).

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: We proceeded with the Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) with no other intention but that of performing the Hajj. As I was at Sarif or near it, I entered in the state of menses. The Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to me and I was weeping, whereupon he said: Are you in a state of menses? I said. Yes. whereupon he said: This is what Allah has ordained for all the daughters of Adam. Do whatever the pilgrim does except that you should not circumambulate the House till you have washed yourself (at the end of the menses period). And the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) offered sacrifice of a cow on behalf of his wives.

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: We went with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) with no other aim but that of Hajj till we came to the place known as Sarif; and there I entered in the state of menses. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to me while I was weeping. He said: What makes you weep? I said: Would that I had not come (for Pilgrimage) this year. He (the Holy Prophet) said: What has happened to you? You have perhaps entered the period of menses. I said: Yes. He said: This is what has been ordained for the daughters of Adam. Do what a pilgrim does except that you should not circumambulate the House, till you are purified (of the menses). She ('A'isha) said: When I came to Makkah, the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said to his companions: Make this (Ihram) the Ihram for 'Umrah. So the people put off Ihram except those who had sacrificial animals with them. She ('A'isha) said: The Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had the sacrificial animal with him, and so had Abu Bakr, 'Umar and other persons of means. They (those who had put off Ihram again) put on Ihram (for Hajj) when they marched (towards Mina), and it was the 8th of Dhu'I-Hijja. She ('A'isha) said: When it was the day of sacrifice (10th of Dhu'I-Hijia), I was purified, and the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) commanded me and I did the circumambulation of Ifada. She said that the flesh of cow was sent to us. I said: What is It? They said: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) has offered cow as sacrifice on behalf of his wives. When it was the night at Hasba, I said: Messenger of Allah, people are coming back from Hajj and 'Umrah, where as I am coming back from Hajj (alone). She (A'isha) reported: He (the Holy Prophet) commanded Abdul Rahman bin Abu Bakr (RA) to mount me upon his camel behind him. She ('A'isha) said: I was very young and I well remember that I dozed off and my face touched the hind part of the haudaj (camel litter) till we came to Tan'im, and entered into the state of Ihram in lieu of 'Umrah (which I for the time being abandoned) and which the people had performed.

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: We entered into the state of Ihram for Hajj till we were at Sarif and I was in menses. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to me and I was weeping. The rest of the hadith is the same but (with this portion) that there were sacrificial animals with Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and with Abu Bakr, Umar and with rich persons. And they pronounced Talbiya as they proceeded on. And there is no mention of this (too): "I was a girl of tender age and I dozed off and my face touched the hind part of the Haudaj."

'A'isha reported that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) entered into the state of Ihram for Hajj Ifrid.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: We proceeded with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) putting on the Ihram for Hajj during the months of Hajj and the night of Hajj till we encamped at Sarif. He (the Holy Prophet) went to his Companiens and said: He who has no sacrificial animal with him, in his case I wish that he should perform 'Umrah (with this Ihram), and he who has the sacrificial animal with him should not do it. So some of them performed Hajj whereas others who had no sacrificial animals with them did not do (Hajj, but per- formed only 'Umrah). The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had the sacrificial animal with him and those too who could afford it (performed) Hajj). The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to me (i. e. A'isha) while I was weeping, and he said: What makes thee weep? I said: I heard your talk with Companions about 'Umrah. He said: What has happened to you? I said: I do not observe prayer (due to the monthly period), whereupon he said: It would not harm you; you should perform (during this time) the rituals of Hajj (which you can do outside the House). Maybe Allah will compensate you for this. You are one among the daughters of Adam ؑؑand Allah has ordained for you as He has ordained for them. So I proceeded on (with the rituals of Hajj) till we came to Mina. I washed myself and then circumambulated the House, and the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) encamped at Muhassab and called Abdul Rahman bin Abu Bakr (RA) and said: Take out your sister from the precincts of the Ka’bah in order to put on Ihram for 'Umrah and circumambulate the House and I shall wait for you here. She said: So I went out and put on Ihram and then circumambulated the House and (ran) between al-Safa and al-Marwah, and then we came to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and he was in his house in the middle of the night. He said: Have you completed your (rituals)? I said: Yes. He then announced to his Companions to march on. He came out, and went to the House and circumambulated it before the dawn prayer and then proceeded to Madinah.

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: Some among us put on Ihram for Hajj alone (Hajj Mufrad); some of us for Hajj and 'Umrah together (Qiran), and some of us for Tamattau (first for 'Umrah and after completing it for Hajj).

AI-Qasim bin Muhammad reported that A'isha had come for Hajj.

'Umrah reported: I heard A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) as saying: We went out with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) five days before the end of Dhi Qa'dah, and we did see but that he intended to perform Hajj (only), but as we came near Makkah the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) commanded that he who did not have the sacrificial animal with him should put off Ihram after circumambulating the House and running between al-Safa and aI-Marwah (and thus convert his Ihram from that of Hajj to 'Umrah). 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: The flesh of cow was sent to us on the Day of Sacrifice (10th of Dhu'I-Hijja). I said: What is this? It was said: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) sacrificed (the cow) on behalf of his wives. Yahyi said: I made a mention of this hadith (what has been stated by 'Umrah) to Qasim bin Muhammad, whereupon be said: By Allah, she has rightly narrated it to you.

Al-Qasim narrated from the Mother of the Believers (Hadrat 'A'isha) that she said: Messenger of Allah. the people return (from Makkah) having done two worships (both Hajj and 'Umrah), but I am coming back with one (only). whereupon he said: You should wait and when the period of menses is over, you should go to Tan'im and put on Ihram and then meet us at such and such time (and I think he said tomorrow); and (the reward of this 'Umrah) is for you equal to your hardship or your spending.

Ibn al-Muththanna reported on the authority of Ibn Abu'Adi who transmitted on the authority of Ibn'Aun who narrated from al-Qasim and Ibrahim having said: I cannot differentiate the hadith of one from the other (Al-Qasim and Ibrahim) that the Mother of the Believers (Allah be pleased with her) said this: Messenger of Allah, people have come back with two acts of worship. The rest of the hadith is the same.

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: We went with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and we did not see but that he (intended to perform) Hajj (only), but when we reached Makkah we circumambulated the House; and the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) commanded that he who did not have with him a sacrificial animal should put off Ihram. She (A'isha) said: (And consequently) those who did not bring the sacrificial animals with them put off Ihram; and among his wives (too) who had not brought the sacrificial animals with them put off Ihram. A'isha said: I entered in the monthly period and could not (therefore) circumambulate the House. When it was the night of Hasba she said: Messenger of Allah, people are coming back (after having performed both) Hajj and'Umrah, whereas I am coming back only with Hajj, whereupon he said: Did you not circumambulate (the Ka’bah) that very night we entered Makkah? She (A'isha) said: No, whereupon he said: Go along with your brother to Tan'im and put on the Ihram for 'Umrah, and it is at such and such a place that you can meet (us). (In the meanwhile) Safiyya (the wife of the Holy Prophet) said: I think, I will detain you (since I have entered in the monthly) period and you shall have to wait for me for the farewell circuit. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: May you be wounded and your head shorn did you not circumambulate on the Day of Sacrifice (10th of Dhu'I-Hijja)? She said: Yes. The Holy Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: There is no harm. You should go forward. 'A'isha said: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was going upwards to the side of Makkah, whereas I was coming down from it, or I was going upward, whereas he was coming down. Ishaq said: She was climbing down, and he was climbing down.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased, with her) reported: We went out with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) pronouncing Talbiya having no explicit intention of Pilgrimage or 'Umrah. The rest of the hadith is the same.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came out on the 4th or 5th of Dhul'I-Hijja (for Pilgrimage to Makkah) and came to me, and he was very angry. I said: Messenger of Allah, who has annoyed you? May Allah cast him in fire. He said: Don't you know that I commanded the people to do an act, but they are hesitant. (Hakam said: I think that he said: They seem to be hesitant.) And if I were to know my affair before what I had to do subsequently, I would not have brought with me the sacrificial animals, and would have bought them (at Makkah) and would have put off Ihram as others have done.

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported that the Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came out (for Pilgrimage) on the 4th or 5th of Dhu'l Hijja. The rest of the hadith is the same, but he (the narrator) made no mention of the doubt of Hakam about his (the Prophet's) words: "They were reluctant."

A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported that she put on Ihram for, 'Umrah and arrived 'at Makkah, but did not circumambulate the House as she had entered in the period of menses, and then put on Ihram for Hajj and performed all the rituals concerning it (except circumambulating the House). The Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said to her on the day of march (when pilgrims come to Mina): Your circumambulation would suffice both Hajj and 'Umrah. She, however, felt reluctant. Thereupon the Holy Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) sent her with 'Abdul Rahman to Tan'im and she performed 'Umrah (with separate rituals) after Hajj.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported that she entered in the monthly period at Sarif, and took bath at 'Arafa (after the period was over). The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said to her: Your circumambulation between al Safa and al-Marwah is enough for your Hajj and 'Umrah.

Safiyya bint Shaiba reported that 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: Messenger of Allah, lo! the people are returning with two rewards whereas I am returning with one reward. Thereupon he commanded 'Abdul Rahman bin Abu Bakr (RA) to take her to al-Tan'im. She ('A'isha) said: He seated me behind him on his camel. She (further) stated: I lifted my head covering and took it off from my neck. He struck my foot as if he was striking the camel. I said to him: Do you find anyone here? She (further) said: I entered into the state of Ihram for 'Umrah till we reached the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and he was at Hasba.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: Safiyyah bint Huyayy entered the period of menses after performing Tawaf Ifada. I made a mention of her menses to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) , whereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) remarked: Well, then she will detain us. I said: Messenger of Allah. she has performed Tawif Ifada and circumambulated the House, and it was after this that she entered the period of menses. Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: (If it is so), then proceed forth.

This hadith is narrated (from 'A'isha) on the authority of Ibn Shihab with the same chain of transmitters (and the words are): Safiyyah bint Huyayy, the wife of Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) , entered the period of menses at the occasion of the Farewell Pilgrimage after she had performed Tawaf Ifada in the state of cleanliness; the rest of the hadith is the same.

Abdul Rahman bin al Qasim narrated on the authority of 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) that she made a mention to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) that Safiyyah had entered the period of menses. The rest of the hadith is the same.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: We feared that Safiyyah might have entered the period of menses before performing Tawaf Ifada. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to us and said: Is Safiyyah going to detain us? Thereupon we said: She has performed Tawaf Ifada. He (the Holy Prophet) said: Then there is no detention (for us) now.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ): Messenger of Allah, Safiyyah bint Huyayy has entered the state of menses, whereupon Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: Perhaps she is going to detain us. Has she not clicumambulated the House along with you (i. e. whether she has not performed Tawaf Ifada)? They said: Yes. He said: Then they should set out.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) inclined to do with Safiyyah what a man feels inclined to do with his wife. They said: Messenger of Allah, she has entered the state of menses, whereupon he said: (Well) she is going to detain us. They (his wives) said: Messenger of Allah, she performed Tawaf Ziyara (Tawaf Ifada) on the Day of Nahr. Thereupon he said: Then she should proceed along with you.

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: When Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) decided to march (for return journey), he found Safiyyah at the door of her tent, sad and downcast. He remarked. Barren, shaven-head, you are going to detain us, and then said: Did you perform Tawaf Ifada on the Day of Nahr? She replied in the affirmative, whereupon he said: Then march on.

This hadith is narrated by 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) through another chain of transmitters, but no mention is made of "sad and downcast".
