2739. It was narrated that Abû Mûsâ said: "I came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ when he was in Al-Baṭḥâ', and he said: 'For what have you entered Iḥrâm?' I said: 'I have entered Iḥrâm for that for which the Prophet ﷺ had entered Iḥrâm.' He said: 'Have you brought a Hadî (sacrificial animal)?' I said: 'No.' He said: 'Then circumambulate the House and (perform Sa'i) between Aṣ-Ṣafâ and Al-Marwah, then exit Iḥrâm.' So I circumambulated the House and (performed Sa'i)
between As-Şafâ and Al-Marwah, then went to a woman of my people and she combed and washed my hair. I used to issue Fatwas to the people based on that, during the Khilâfah of Abû Bakr and 'Umar. Then one day during Hajj season a man came to me and said: 'You do not know what the Commander of the Believers has introduced concerning the rites. I said: O people, whoever heard our Fatwa, let him not rush to follow it, for the Commander of the Believers is coming to you, and you should follow him. When he came, I said: O Commander of the Believers! What is this that you have introduced concerning the rites? He said: If we follow the Book of Allâh, then Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, says: 'And complete the Hajj and Umrah for Allâh.'[1] And if we follow the Sunnah of our Prophet ﷺ, then our Prophet ﷺ did not exit Ihrâm until he had slaughtered the Hadî (sacrificial animal).'" (Şahîh)

Commentary
The noble Prophet ﷺ had sent Abû Mûsâ to Yemen, because he belonged to Yemen, or he was a Yemenite. He then arrived from Yemen to Makkah, upon being informed about the Farewell Pilgrimage.
