٨ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حَدِيدٍ قَالَ كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُيَسِّرٍ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ اعْتَمَرَ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ حَضَرَ لَهُ الْمَوْسِمُ أَ يَحُجُّ مُفْرِداً لِلْحَجِّ أَوْ يَتَمَتَّعُ أَيُّهُمَا أَفْضَلُ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ يَتَمَتَّعُ أَفْضَلُ.
8. Ahmad ibn Muhammad from has narrated from Ali ibn Hadid who has said the following: “Once Ali ibn Muyassir wrote to him (the Imam) asking about a man who performed al-‘Umrah in the month of Ramadan, then it was al-Hajj season; if he could perform al-Hajj as al-Mufrid al-Hajj or al- Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous), and which one was better. He (the Imam) wrote in answer, ‘Al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ is better.’”
