Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 24, Hadith 91

It was narrated from Safwan bin Ya’la, from his father, that: a man came to the Prophet who had initiated Ihram for ‘Umrah, wearing sewn garments and having put on Khaluq. He said: “I have initiated Ihram for ‘Umrah, so what should I do?” The Prophet said: “What would you do if you were doing Hajj?” He said: “I would avoid this and wash it off.” He said: “Whatever you would do for Hajj, do it, for ‘Umrah,” (sahih)

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَعْلَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَقَدْ أَهَلَّ بِعُمْرَةٍ وَعَلَيْهِ مُقَطَّعَاتٌ وَهُوَ مُتَضَمِّخٌ بِخَلُوقٍ فَقَالَ أَهْلَلْتُ بِعُمْرَةٍ فَمَا أَصْنَعُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ مَا كُنْتَ صَانِعًا فِي حَجِّكَ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَتَّقِي هَذَا وَأَغْسِلُهُ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏”‏ مَا كُنْتَ صَانِعًا فِي حَجِّكَ فَاصْنَعْهُ فِي عُمْرَتِكَ ‏”‏ ‏.‏

Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 24, Hadith 91

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan an-Nasa’i collection of hadiths. Within the pantheon of Sunni Islamic hadith collections, the Sunan an-Nasa’i occupies a privileged position as one of the six canonical works. This impressive compilation was the achievement of the 9th century scholar Ahmad ibn Shu’ayb al-Nasa’i, who was renowned for his profound knowledge of prophetic traditions. The book assembles more than 5,700 narrations covering the full range of the Prophet’s Sunnah. Imam al-Nasa’i distinguished his work through a famously rigorous and selective process, choosing to include only those narrations that met his strict standards of authenticity while rejecting those that were dubious. This has resulted in a collection held in the highest regard for its accuracy.
