Commentary
In the beginning it used to be in this manner only. There used to be a choice in Ihrâm for Hajj and 'Umrah. Later on the Prophet ﷺ made 'Umrah requisite based on Revelation, that those people who have entered Ihrâm for performing Hajj, they should change their Hajj Ihrâm into Ihrâm for 'Umrah if they do not have sacrificial animals with them. They should then perform 'Umrah and exit Ihrâm; while those who have sacrificial animals with them, they should include 'Umrah with Hajj. But they should not come out of Ihrâm on completion of 'Umrah.
