Sahih al-Bukhari 4204 (Book 64, Hadith 420)
Hajj?” I said, “Yes,” He said, “How did you express your intention (for performing Hajj)? ” I said,
“Labbaik (i.e. I am ready) to assume the Ihram with the same intention as that of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ).” The
Prophet said, “Perform the Tawaf around the Ka`ba and between Safa and Marwa, and then finish
your Ihram.” So I performed the Tawaf around the Ka`ba and between Safa and Marwa and then I
came to a woman from the tribe of Qais who removed the lice from my head.
