Discontinuation of Talbiyah (Here I Am, O Lord, to obey Your command) in the State of Ihram and What One Should Do

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that one who performs a separate al-‘Umrah should discontinue Talbiyah (here I am, O Lord, to obey Your command) as soon as the camel sets foot in al- Haram (the sacred area).”

“Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), has said, ‘One who is performing al-‘Umrah must discontinue al- Talbiyah (here I am, O Lord, to obey Your command) when he enters al-Haram (the sacred area).’”

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘One who commences al-‘Umrah from al-Tan‘im must not discontinue Talbiyah until he can see the Masjid.’”

“I heard abu Ja‘far (a.s.), say, ‘When a person performing al-‘Umrah arrives in Makkah, performs Tawaf and Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah, then if he likes, he can move on riding his means of transport and join his family.”’

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘One who performs al-‘Umrah al-Mabtulah, after performing Tawaf around the House and Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah, comes out of the state of Ihram; if he likes, he can leave in the same hour.’”

“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who is for al-‘Umrah al-Mabtulah. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is sufficient for him to perform Tawaf around the House, Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah and shave, if he has performed one Tawaf around the House, and if he likes, he can do Taqsir (cutting some hair or finger nails and so on).”’

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘One, who is for al-‘Umrah, must perform Tawaf, Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah and shave.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘After shaving he must perform another Tawaf.’”

“I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who performs just al-‘Umrah; if he is required to perform Tawaf al-Nisa’. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, he is required to do so.’”

“Abu al-al-Qasim Mukhallad ibn Musa al-Raziy wrote to the man (a.s.), asking him (the Imam) about al-‘Umrah al-Mabtulah: if one performing it is required to perform Tawaf al-Nisa’ and in al-‘Umrah for al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous). He (the Imam) wrote for him, ‘In al-‘Umrah al- Mabtulah one is required to perform Tawaf al-Nisa’ but one who performs al-‘Umrah for al-Hajj al- Tamattu‘ (advantageous) is not required to perform Tawaf al-Nisa’.” NOTE: (Fatwa best explains Hadith 1-9 of this and the following Chapter)
