English translation

1789. It was reported from Ḥabīb, meaning Al-Mu'allam, from 'Aṭā' that Jābir bin 'Abdullāh narrated to him: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and his Companions entered Ihrām for Hajj, and none of them had, at that time, the Hadi with them except for the Prophet ﷺ and Ṭālahā. 'Alī, may Allāh be pleased with him, had come from Yemen, and he too had his Hadi, and he had said: 'I enter Ihrām for what the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ has entered Ihrām.' The Prophet ﷺ then commanded his Companions to make (their Hajj) into an Umrah: They should perform the Tawāf, then cut their hair, and then leave the state of Ihrām — except for one who had the Hadi with him. But they said: 'Are we going to leave for Minā while our private parts are dripping (with fluid)?' This reached the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and he said: 'Had I known what I know now, I would not have taken the sacrificial animals, and were it not for the fact that I have the animals with me, I would have left the state of Ihrām.'" (Sahīh)

1789 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ الثَّقَفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَبِيبٌ يَعْنِي الْمُعَلِّمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، حَدَّثَنِي جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَهَلَّ هُوَ وَأَصْحَابُهُ بِالْحَجِّ وَلَيْسَ مَعَ أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ هَدْيٌ إِلَّا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَطَلْحَةَ وَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَدِمَ مِنَ الْيَمَنِ وَمَعَهُ الْهَدْيُ فَقَالَ: أَهْلَلْتُ بِمَا أَهَلَّ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَرَ أَصْحَابَهُ أَنْ يَجْعَلُوهَا عُمْرَةً يَطُوفُوا، ثُمَّ يُقَصِّرُوا وَيُحِلُّوا إِلَّا مَنْ كَانَ مَعَهُ الْهَدْيُ فَقَالُوا: أَنَنْطَلِقُ إِلَى مِنًى وَذُكُورُنَا تَقْطُرُ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: «لَوْ أَنِّي اسْتَقْبَلْتُ مِنْ أَمْرِي مَا اسْتَدْبَرْتُ مَا أَهْدَيْتُ، وَلَوْلَا أَنَّ مَعِي الْهَدْيَ لَأَحْلَلْتُ»
