Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 24, Hadith 94
” My father said: ‘We came to Jabir and asked him about the Hajj of the Prophet. He told us that the Messenger of Allah said: “Had I known when I set out what I know now, I would have brought the Jadi (sacrificial animal ) with me and I would not have made it ‘Umrah. Whoever does not have a Jadi with him, let him exit Ihram and make it ‘Umrah,” ‘Ali may Allah be ;eased with him, came from Yemen with a Hadi, and the Messenger of Allah brought a Hadi from Al-Madinah, Fatimah had put on a dyed garment and applied kohl to her eyes, and he (‘Ali) said: “I went to the Prophet to complain about that and find out whether she could do that, I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, Fatima had put on a dyed garment and applied kohl to her eyes, and she said, the Messenger of Allah told me to do that. ‘He said: ‘She is telling the truth, she is telling the truth, I told her to do that
Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 24, Hadith 94
The above hadith is from the Sunan an-Nasa’i collection of hadiths. Sunan an-Nasa’i is a cornerstone of hadith literature, meticulously compiled by the celebrated Islamic scholar Ahmad ibn Shu’ayb al-Nasa’i in the 9th century. It is irrevocably positioned as one of the six most important collections, the Kutub al-Sittah, that underpin Sunni Islamic law and belief. The work contains a substantial body of over 5,700 narrations that record the sayings, actions, and tacit approvals of the Prophet Muhammad. Al-Nasa’i’s approach was defined by a rigorous and critical methodology that privileged authentic transmissions and deliberately filtered out weaker ones. This unwavering commitment to quality has established the Sunan as a profoundly reliable and authoritative source.
