5. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj who has said the following: “I once said to abu ‘Abd Allah , that I want to reside in Makkah, what am I required to do? He (the Imam) said, ‘When you see the new moon of Dhu al-Hajj ah then go out to al-Ja‘ranah, then assume the state of Ihram from there for al-Hajj.’ I then asked, ‘What am I required to do if I enter Makkah and remain there until the day of al-Tarwiyah (eight of Dhu al-Hajj ah) without performing Tawaf around the House?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘(If you) stay there for ten days but do not visit al-Ka‘bah, it is a long time and you cannot leave it as if neglected. However, when you enter Makkah, you can perform Tawaf around the House and perform Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al- Marwah.’ I then asked, ‘Is it not the case that it is considered as coming out of the state of Ihram after Tawaf and Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah? He (the Imam) said, ‘You commence with Talbiyah.’ Then he (the Imam) said, ‘Whenever you perform Tawaf and two Rak‘at Salat (prayer), then commence with Talbiyah.’ He (the Imam) then said, ‘Sufyan, your faqih came to me and said, “What makes you to instruct your followers to assume the state of Ihram from al-Ja‘ranah?’” I said to him, ‘It is a place of the places wherefrom the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, assumed the state of Ihram.’ He then asked, ‘Which one of the Miqat (place for assuming the state of Ihram) of the Messenger of Allah is it?’ I then said to him, ‘The Messenger of Allah assumed the state of Ihram from this place when he distributed gains of the battle of Hunayn and upon returning from Ta’if.’ He said, ‘This is what I have taken from ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Umar who upon seeing the moon would call aloud for al-Hajj.’ I then said, ‘Was he not an acceptable person among you?’ He replied, ‘Yes, he was acceptable. However, did you not know that the companions of the Messenger of Allah would assume the state of Ihram from the Masjid?’ I then said, ‘These people were to perform al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous), with blood on their necks (they owed to offer sacrifice) and those people were people of Makkah who could not perform al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous). I liked that they go out of Makkah to one of the Miqat (place for assuming the state of Ihram) and remain absent for a few days.’ He (Sufyan) then said to me, ‘I will report that it is one of the Miqat (place for assuming the state of Ihram) of the Messenger of Allah and I will see that you, O abu ‘Abd Allah, will not do so.’ I then laughed and said, ‘I will, however, see that they do so.’ ‘Abd al-Rahman then asked about the women with us and about what they are required to do. He (the Imam) said, ‘If privacy was not an issue in the case of women, I would instruct those of them who perform al-Hajj for the first time to go out. So instruct those of them who perform al-Hajj for the first time to commence al-Hajj with the new moon of Dhu al-Hajj ah and those of them who have performed al-Hajj before to commence al-Hajj on the fifth of Dhu al-Hajj ah or on al-Tarwiyah (eight of Dhu al-Hajj ah).’ He went out and we stayed. Certain ones of the women with us who performed al-Hajj for the first time became ill (experienced Hayd (menses)). On fifth of Dhu al- Hajj ah he came and I then sent him (the Imam) a message that certain ones of the women who perform al-Hajj for the first time have become ill, ‘What are they required to do?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘They must wait until al-Tarwiyah (eight of Dhu al-Hajjah). If they become clean they commence (say Talbiyah) for al-Hajj, otherwise, before the day of al-Tarwiyah (eight of Dhu al-Hajjah), they must assume the state of Ihram and others commence (say Talbiyah) for al-Hajj on the day of al-Tarwiyah (eight of Dhu al-Hajjah).’ I then asked, ‘There is a new born child with us. What must we do?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Instruct the mother to meet Hamidah and asked her about what to do about the child.’ She went to her and asked about what to do. She (Hamidah) told her, ‘On the day of al-Tarwiyah (eight of Dhu al-Hajjah) assume the state of Ihram for him (the child), take off his clothes and give him Ghusl (bath) as people in the state of Ihram take off their clothes, make him stay in the staying places and on the day of sacrifice throw pebbles for him. Shave his head and instruct the slave-girl to perform Tawaf with him (Sa‘y) between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah.’ I then asked him about a man of the people of Makkah who goes to certain cities and returns to Makkah and passes by a certain Miqat (place for assuming the state of Ihram). Can he perform al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous)?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘I do not think he cannot do so, if he were to do; while I like his commencing (saying Talbiyah).”’
