Sunan Ibn Majah Book 25, Hadith 99
“We began our Talbiyah
for Hajj only with Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ), and we did not mix it
with
‘Umrah. We arrived in Makkah when four nights of Dhul-Hijjah
had
passed, and when we had performed Tawaf around the Ka’bah and
Sa’y
between Safa and Marwah, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
commanded us to
make it ‘Umrah, and to come out of Ihram and have
relations with our
wives. We said: ‘There are only five (days)
until ‘Arafah. Will we g
out to it with our male organs dripping
with semen?’ The Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘I am the most
righteous and truthful among you, and
were it not for the sacrificial
animal, I would have exited Ihram.’
Suraqah bin Malik said: ‘Is
this Tamattu’ for this year only or
forever?’ He said: ‘No, it
is forever and ever.’”
“Abu Musa Al-Ash’ari used to issue rulings concerning Tamattu’. Then a man said to him: ‘Withhold some of your rulings, for you do not know what the Commander of the Believers has introduced into the rites after you.’ (Abu Musa said:) ‘Then when I met him later on, I asked him.’ ‘Umar said: ‘I know that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and his Companions did it, but I did not like that people should lie with their wives in the shade of the Arak trees and then go out for Hajj with their heads dripping,’ (i.e. due to the bath after sexual relations).”
“We went out with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) when there were five nights left of Dhul-Qa’dah, intending only to perform Hajj. When we came close, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordered that whoever did not have a sacrificial animal, then he should exit the Ihram. So all the people exited Ihram, except those who had the sacrificial animal. When the Day of Sacrifice i.e., the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah) came, some beef was brought to us, and it was said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) has offered a sacrifice on behalf of his wives.’”
