1561. Narrated Al-Aswad: 'Aishah رضي الله عنها said, "We went out with the Prophet ﷺ (from Al-Madīna) with the intention of performing Hajj only, and when we reached Makkah we performed Tawāf round the (1) (Ch.34) There are three various ways of performing Hajj - as follows: a) Hajj-at-Tamattu': It means that you have no Hady with you and you assume Iḥrām only for Umra first and after Umra you finish your Iḥrām and assume another Iḥrām for performing Hajj, from Makkah, but you have to slaughter a Hady (an animal for sacrifice). b) Hajj-al-Qirān: It means that one should have a Hady with him and should perform Umra and then Hajj with the same state of Iḥrām. c) Hajj-al-Ifrād: It means that one assumes Iḥrām with the intention of performing Hajj only and does not perform Umra, and this is specially for the inhabitants of Makkah. Ka'bah(1) and then the Prophet ﷺ ordered those who had not driven the Hady along with them to finish their Ihram. So, the people who had not driven the Hady along with them finished their Ihram. The Prophet's wives, too, had not driven the Hady with them, so, they too, finished their Ihram". 'Aishah رضي الله عنها added, "I got my menses and could not perform Tawāf round the Ka'bah." So when it was the night of Ḥaṣba (i.e., when we stopped at Al-Muḥaṣṣab), I said, 'O Allāh's Messenger! Everyone is returning after performing Hajj and Umra but I am returning after performing Hajj only.' He said, 'Didn't you perform Tawāf round the Ka'bah the night we reached Makkah?' I replied in the negative. He said, 'Go with your brother to Tan'im and assume the Ihram for Umra, (and after performing it) come back (to such and such a place). On that Ṣafiyya said, 'I feel that I will detain you all.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'O Aqrā Halqā!'(2) Didn't you perform Tawāf of the Ka'bah on the day of sacrifice? (i.e. Tawāf-al-Ifada) Ṣafiyya replied in the affirmative. He said, (to Ṣafiyya). 'There is no harm for you to proceed on with us.'" 'Aishah رضي الله عنها added, "(After returning from Umra), the Prophet ﷺ met me while he was ascending (from Makkah) and I was descending to it, or I was ascending and he was descending."
