Sahih al-Bukhari 1728 (Book 26, Hadith 21)
by Al-Hajun, saying, “May Allah bless His Apostle Muhammad. Once we dismounted here with him,
and at that time we were traveling with light luggage; we had a few riding animals and a little food
ration. I, my sister, `Aisha, Az-Zubair and such and such persons performed `Umra, and when we had
passed our hands over the Ka`ba (i.e. performed Tawaf round the Ka`ba and between As-Safa and Al-
Marwa) we finished our lhram. Later on we assumed Ihram for Hajj the same evening.”
