حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ: أَهْلَلْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْحَجِّ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا مَكَّةَ أَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَحِلَّ وَنَجْعَلَهَا عُمْرَةً، فَكَبُرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْنَا، وَضَاقَتْ بِهِ صُدُورُنَا، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَمَا نَدْرِي أَشَيْءٌ بَلَغَهُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ أَمْ شَيْءٌ مِنْ قِبَلِ النَّاسِ، فَقَالَ: «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، أَحِلُّوا، فَلَوْلَا الْهَدْيُ الَّذِي مَعِي، فَعَلْتُ كَمَا فَعَلْتُمْ» قَالَ: فَأَحْلَلْنَا حَتَّى وَطِئْنَا النِّسَاءَ، وَفَعَلْنَا مَا يَفْعَلُ الْحَلَالُ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ التَّرْوِيَةِ، وَجَعَلْنَا مَكَّةَ بِظَهْرٍ، أَهْلَلْنَا بِالْحَجِّ.

We entered with the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) in the state of Ihram for Hajj. When we came to Mecca he commanded us to put off Ihram and make it for 'Umra. We felt it (the command) hard for us, and our hearts were anguished on account of this and it (this reaction of the people) reached the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ). We do not know whether he received (this news) from the Heaven (through revelation) or from the people. (Whatever the case might be) he said; O people, put off Ihram. If there were not the sacrificial animals with me, I would have done as you do. So we put off the Ihram (after performing Umra), and we had intercourse with our wives and did everything which a non-Muhrim does (applying perfume, putting on clothes, etc.), and when It was the day of Tarwiya (8th of Dhu'l-Hijja) we turned our back to Mecca (in order to go to Mini, 'Arafat) and we put on lhram for Hajj.
