1770. It was reported from Sa'eed bin Jubair that he said to 'Abdullāh bin 'Abbās: "O Abūl-'Abbās! I am amazed at how the Companions of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ have differed regarding when he entered the state of Ihrām." He replied: "I am the most knowledgeable person regarding this. Indeed, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ only performed one Hajj, so they differed from this. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ left (Al-Madinah) intending to perform Hajj, so when he prayed two Rak'ahs in his Masjid at Dhul-Hulaifah, he entered it (the state of Ihrām) at his sitting place (after prayer) — so he began saying the Talbiyahs for Hajj after he had completed the two Rak'ahs. Some people heard this from him and memorized it. He then mounted (his camel), and once his camel had stood up, he said the Talbiyah, and some people heard this. This is because people used to come to him in groups, so they heard him say it (the Talbiyah) when his camel stood up, so they said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ entered (into Ihrām) when his camel stood up.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ then continued onwards, until he had reached the peak of Al-Baidā', and he said the Talbiyah. Some people heard this, so they said: 'He only entered into Ihrām after he had reached the peak of Al-Baidā.' By Allāh, he entered (into Ihrām) at his prayer place, and he announced (the Ihrām) after his camel had stood up, and he announced it after he had reached the peak of Al-Baydā'." Sa'eed added: "So whoever took the saying of Ibn 'Abbās would enter into Ihrām after completing the two Rak'ahs at his place of prayer." (Da'if)
