1789. Narrated Ṣafwān bin Ya'lā bin Umayya that his father said, "A man came to the Prophet ﷺ while he was at Jirāna. The man was wearing a cloak which had traces of Khalūq of Sufra (a kind of perfume). The man asked (the Prophet ﷺ), 'What do you order me to perform in my 'Umra?' So, Allāh inspired the Prophet ﷺ Divinely and he was screened by a piece of cloth. I wished to see the Prophet ﷺ being Divinely inspired. 'Umar رضي الله عنه said to me, 'Come! Will you be pleased to look at the Prophet ﷺ while Allāh is inspiring him?' I replied in the affirmative. 'Umar lifted one corner of the cloth and I looked at the Prophet ﷺ who was snoring. When that state was over, the Prophet ﷺ asked, "Where is the questioner who asked about 'Umra? Put off your cloak and wash away the traces of Khalūq from your body and clean the Sufra (yellow colour) and perform in your Umra what you perform in your Hajj [i.e., the Tawāf round the Ka'bah and the Sā'y (going) between Aṣ-Ṣafā and Al-Marwa]."

1789 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي صَفْوَانُ بْنُ يَعْلَى بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ - يَعْنِي -، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ بِالْجِعْرَانَةِ، وَعَلَيْهِ جُبَّةٌ وَعَلَيْهِ أَثَرُ الخَلُوقِ - أَوْ قَالَ: صُفْرَةٌ -، فَقَالَ: كَيْفَ تَأْمُرُنِي أَنْ أَصْنَعَ فِي عُمْرَتِي؟ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسُتِرَ بِثَوْبٍ، وَوَدِدْتُ أَنِّي قَدْ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ الوَحْيُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: تَعَالَ أَيَسُرُّكَ أَنْ تَنْظُرَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَقَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ الوَحْيَ؟ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، فَرَفَعَ طَرَفَ الثَّوْبِ، فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ لَهُ غَطِيطٌ، - وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ: كَغَطِيطِ البَكْرِ - فَلَمَّا سُرِّيَ عَنْهُ قَالَ: «أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنِ العُمْرَةِ اخْلَعْ عَنْكَ الجُبَّةَ، وَاغْسِلْ أَثَرَ الخَلُوقِ عَنْكَ، وَأَنْقِ الصُّفْرَةَ، وَاصْنَعْ فِي عُمْرَتِكَ كَمَا تَصْنَعُ فِي حَجِّكَ»
