2970. It was narrated that 'Abdah bin Abu Lubâbah said: "I heard Abu Wâ'il, Shaqiq bin Salamah, say: 'I heard Subai bin Ma'bad say: "I was a Christian man, then I became Muslim and I entered Ihrâm for Hajj and 'Umrah. Salmân bin Rabî'ah and Zaid bin Suhân heard me when I was entering Ihrâm for them both together at Qâdisiyyah. They said: 'This man is more lost than his camel!' It was as if they had heaped a mountain on me with their words. I went to 'Umar bin Khattâb and told him about that. He turned to them and reproached them, then he turned to me and said: 'You have been guided to the Sunnah of the
Prophet ﷺ, you have been guided to the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ." (Sahih)
In his narration Hishâm said: "Shaqiq said: 'I often went, myself and Masruq, to ask him about that.'"
Another chain that Shaqiq narrated, that Subai bin Ma'bad said: "I had recently been a Christian and was new in Islam. So I was trying my best (to understand the rulings of Islam). I entered Ihrâm for Hajj and Umrah (together)." Then he mentioned a similar report.

Commentary
a. Performing Hajj Qirân (Combined Hajj) is Sunnah.
b. 'Umar ﷺ was of the opinion that though performing Hajj and Umrah in one trip is allowed, a separate journey for each one is recommended. So, his prevention from Qirân or Tamattu' was only to encourage people to do the preferable act; not that they are forbidden.
