Translation
of Sahih Bukhari, Book 15:
Minor Pilgrammage (Umra)
Volume 3, Book 27,
Number 1:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "(The performance
of) 'Umra is an expiation for the sins committed
(between it and the previous one). And the reward
of Hajj Mabrur (the one accepted by Allah) is
nothing except Paradise."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
2:
Narrated Ibn Juraij:
Ikrima bin Khalid asked Ibn 'Umar about
performing 'Umra before Hajj. Ibn 'Umar replied,
"There is no harm in it." 'Ikrima said,
"Ibn 'Umar also said, 'The Prophet had
performed 'Umra before performing Hajj.'"
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
3:
Narrated 'Ikrima bin Khalid:
"I asked Ibn 'Umar the same (as
above)."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
4:
Narrated Mujahid:
Ursa bin AzZubair and I entered the Mosque (of
the Prophet) and saw 'Abdullah bin Umar sitting
near the dwelling place of Aisha and some people
were offering the Duha prayer. We asked him about
their prayer and he replied that it was a heresy.
He (Ursa) then asked him how many times the
Prophet had performed 'Umra. He replied, 'Four
times; one of them was in the month of Rajab."
We disliked to contradict him. Then we heard 'Aisha,
the Mother of faithful believers cleaning her
teeth with Siwak in the dwelling place. 'Ursa
said, "O Mother! O Mother of the believers!
Don't you hear what Abu 'Abdur Rahman is
saying?" She said, "What does he
say?" 'Ursa said, "He says that Allah's
Apostle performed four 'Umra and one of them was
in the month of Rajab." 'Aisha said,
"May Allah be merciful to Abu 'Abdur Rahman!
The Prophet did not perform any 'Umra except that
he was with him, and he never performed any 'Umra
in Rajab."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
5:
Narrated 'Ursa bin Az-Zubair:
I asked 'Aisha (whether the Prophet had
performed 'Umra in Rajab). She replied,
"Allah's Apostle never performed any 'Umra in
Rajab."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
6:
Narrated Qatada:
I asked Anas how many times the Prophet had
performed 'Umra. He replied, "Four times. 1.
'Umra of Hudaibiya in Dhi-l-Qa'da when the pagans
hindered him; 2. 'Umra in the following year in
Dhi-l-Qa'da after the peace treaty with them (the
pagans); 3. 'Umra from Al-Jr'rana where he
distributed the war booty." I think he meant
the booty (of the battle) of Hunain. I asked,
"How many times did he perform Hajj?" He
(Anas) replied, "Once. "
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
7:
Narrated Qatada:
I asked Anas (about the Prophet's 'Umra) and he
replied, "The Prophet performed 'Umra when
the pagans made him return, and Umra of al-Hudaibiya
(the next year), and another 'Umra in Dhi-l-Qa'da,
and another 'Umra in combination with his
Hajj."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
8:
Narrated Hammam:
The Prophet performed four 'Umra (three) in
Dhi-l-Qa'da except the (one) 'Umra which he
performed with his Hajj: His 'Umra from Al-hudaibiya,
and the one of the following year, and the one
from Al-Jr'rana where he distributed the booty (of
the battle) of Hunain, and another 'Umra with his
Hajj.
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
9:
Narrated Abu Ishaq:
I asked Masruq, 'Ata' and Mujahid (about the 'Umra
of Allah's Apostle). They said, "Allah's
Apostle had performed 'Umra in Dhi-l-Qa'da before
he performed Hajj." I heard Al-Bara' bin 'Azib
saying, "Allah's Apostle had performed 'Umra
in Dhi-l-Qa'da twice before he performed
Hajj."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
10:
Narrated Ata:
I heard Ibn 'Abbas saying, "Allah's
Apostle asked an Ansari woman (Ibn 'Abbas named
her but 'Ata' forgot her name), 'What prevented
you from performing Hajj with us?' She replied,
'We have a camel and the father of so-and-so and
his son (i.e. her husband and her son) rode it and
left one camel for us to use for irrigation.' He
said (to her), 'Perform 'Umra when Ramadan comes,
for 'Umra in Ramadan is equal to Hajj (in
reward),' or said something similar."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
11:
Narrated Aisha:
We set out along with Allah's Apostle shortly
before the appearance of the new moon (crescent)
of the month of Dhi-l-Hijja and he said to us,
"Whoever wants to assume Ihram for Hajj may
do so; and whoever wants to assume Ihram for 'Umra
may do so. Hadn't I brought the Hadi (animal for
sacrificing) (with me), I would have assumed Ihram
for 'Umra." ('Aisha added,): So some of us
assumed Ihram for 'Umra while the others for Hajj.
I was amongst those who assumed Ihram for 'Umra.
The day of 'Arafat approached and I was still
menstruating. I complained to the Prophet (about
that) and he said, "Abandon your 'Umra, undo
and comb your hair, and assume Ihram for
Hajj;." When it was the night of Hasba, he
sent 'Abdur Rahman with me to At-Tan'im and I
assumed Ihram for 'Umra (and performed it) in lieu
of my missed 'Umra.
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
12:
Narrated 'Amr bin Aus:
Abdul Rahman bin Abu Bakr told me that the
Prophet had ordered him to let 'Aisha ride behind
him and to make he perform 'Umra from At-Tan'im.
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
13:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
The Prophet and his companions assumed Ihram
for Hajj and none except the Prophet and Talha had
the Hadi with them. 'Ali had come from Yemen and
he had the Hadi with him. He ('Ali) said, "I
have assumed Ihram with an intention like that of
Allah's Apostle has assumed it." The Prophet
ordered his companions to intend the Ihram with
which they had come for 'Umra, to perform the
Tawaf of the Ka'ba (and between Safa and Marwa),
to get their hair cut short and then to finish
their Ihram with the exception of those who had
the Hadi with them. They asked, "Shall we go
to Mina and the private organs of some of us are
dribbling (if we finish Ihram and have sexual
relations with our wives)?" The Prophet heard
that and said, "Had I known what I know now,
I would not have brought the Hadi. If I did not
have the Hadi with me I would have finished my
Ihram." 'Aisha got her menses and performed
all the ceremonies (of Hajj) except the Tawaf . So
when she became clean from her menses, and she had
performed the Tawaf of the Ka'ba, she said,
"O Allah's Apostle! You (people) are
returning with both Hajj and 'Umra and I am
returning only with Hajj!" So, he ordered 'Abdur
Rahman bin Abu Bakr to go with her to At-Tan'im.
Thus she performed 'Umra after the Hajj in the
month of Dhi-l-Hijja. Suraqa bin Malik bin Ju'sham
met the Prophet at Al-'Aqaba (Jamrat-ul 'Aqaba)
while the latter was stoning it and said, "O
Allah's Apostle! Is this permissible only for
you?" The Prophet replied, "No, it is
for ever (i.e. it is permissible for all Muslims
to perform 'Umra before Hajj."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
14:
Narrated 'Aisha:
We set out with Allah's Apostle shortly before
the appearance of the new moon of Dhi-l-Hiija and
he said, "Whoever wants to assume Ihram for 'Umra
may do so, and whoever wants to assume Ihram for
Hajj may do so. Had not I brought the Hadi with
me, I would have assumed Ihram for 'Umra."
Some of the people assumed Ihram for 'Umra while
others for Hajj. I was amongst those who had
assumed Ihram for 'Umra. I got my menses before
entering Mecca, and was menstruating till the day
of 'Arafat. I complained to Allah's Apostle about
it, he said, "Abandon your 'Umra, undo and
comb your hair, and assume Ihram for Hajj."
So, I did that accordingly. When it was the night
of Hasba (day of departure from Mina), the Prophet
sent 'Abdur Rahman with me to At-Tanim.
The sub-narrator adds: He ('AbdurRahman) let
her ride behind him. And she assumed Ihram for 'Umra
in lieu of the abandoned one. Aisha completed her
Hajj and 'Umra, and no Hadi, Sadaqa (charity), or
fasting was obligatory for her.
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
15:
Narrated Al-Aswad:
That 'Aisha said, "O Allah's Apostle! The
people are returning after performing the two
Nusuks (i.e. Hajj and 'Umra) but I am returning
with one only?" He said, "Wait till you
become clean from your menses and then go to At-Tan'im,
assume Ihram (and after performing 'Umra) join us
at such-and-such a place. But it (i.e. the reward
if 'Umra) is according to your expenses or the
hardship (which you will undergo while performing
it)."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
16:
Narrated 'Aisha:
We set out assuming the Ihram for Hajj in the
months of Hajj towards the sacred precincts of
Hajj. We dismounted at Sarif and the Prophet said
to his companions, "Whoever has not got the
Hadi with him and likes to make it as 'Umra, he
should do it, but he who has got the Hadi with him
should not do it." The Prophet and some of
his wealthy companions had the Hadi with them, so
they did not finish Ihram after performing the 'Umra.
The Prophet came to me while I was weeping. He
asked me the reason for it. I replied, "I
have heard of what you have said to your
companions and I cannot do the 'Umra." He
asked me, "What is the matter with you?"
I replied, "I am not praying." He said,
"There is no harm in it as you are one of the
daughters of Adam and the same is written for you
as for others. So, you should perform Hajj and I
hope that Allah will enable you to perform the 'Umra
as well." So, I carried on till we departed
from Mina and halted at Al-Mahassab. The Prophet
called 'Abdur-Rahman and said, "Go out of the
sanctuary with your sister and let her assume
Ihram for 'Umra, and after both of you have
finished the Tawaf I will be waiting for you at
this place." We came back at mid-night and
the Prophet asked us, "Have you
finished?" I replied in the affirmative. He
announced the departure and the people set out for
the journey and some of them had performed the
Tawaf of the Ka'ba before the morning prayer, and
after that the Prophet set out for Medina.
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
17:
Narrated Safwan bin Ya'la bin Umaiya from his
father who said:
"A man came to the Prophet while he was at
Ji'rana. The man was wearing a cloak which had
traces of Khaluq or Sufra (a kind of perfume). The
man asked (the Prophet ), 'What do you order me to
perform in my 'Umra?' So, Allah inspired the
Prophet divinely and he was screened by a place of
cloth. I wished to see the Prophet being divinely
inspired. 'Umar said to me, 'Come! Will you be
pleased to look at the Prophet while Allah is
inspiring him?' I replied in the affirmative. 'Umar
lifted one corner of the cloth and I looked at the
Prophet who was snoring. (The sub-narrator thought
that he said: The snoring was like that of a
camel). When that state was over, the Prophet
asked, "Where is the questioner who asked
about 'Umra? Put off your cloak and wash away the
traces of Khaluq from your body and clean the
Sufra (yellow color) and perform in your Umra what
you perform in your Hajj (i.e. the Tawaf round the
Ka'ba and the Sa'i between Safa and Marwa). "
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
18:
Narrated Hisham Ibn 'Urwa from his father who
said:
While I was a youngster, I asked 'Aisha the
wife of the Prophet. "What about the meaning
of the Statement of Allah;
"Verily! (the mountains) As-Safa and Al
Marwa, are among the symbols of Allah. So, it is
not harmful if those who perform Hajj or 'Umra of
the House (Ka'ba at Mecca) to perform the going (Tawaf)
between them? (2.158) I understand (from that)
that there is no harm if somebody does not perform
the Tawaf between them." 'Aisha replied,
"No, for if it were as you are saying, then
the recitation would have been like this: 'It is
not harmful not to perform Tawaf between them.'
This verse was revealed in connection with the
Ansar who used to assume the Ihram for the idol
Manat which was put beside a place called Qudaid
and those people thought it not right to perform
the Tawaf of As-Safa and Al-Marwa. When Islam
came, they asked Allah's Apostle about that, and
Allah revealed:--
"Verily! (the mountains) As-Safa and Al-Marwa
Are among the symbols of Allah. So, it is not
harmful of those who perform Hajj or 'Umra of the
House (Ka'ba at Mecca) to perform the going (Tawaf)
between them." (2.158) Sufyan and Abu Muawiya
added from Hisham (from 'Aisha): "The Hajj or
'Umra of the person who does not perform the going
(Tawaf) between As-Safa and Al-Marwa is incomplete
in Allah's sight.
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
19:
Narrated Isma'il:
Abdullah bin Abu Aufa said: "Allah's
Apostle performed 'Umra and we too performed 'Umra
along with him. When he entered Mecca he performed
the Tawaf (of Ka'ba) and we too performed it along
with him, and then he came to the As-Safa and Al-Marwa
(i.e. performed the Sai) and we also came to them
along with him. We were shielding him from the
people of Mecca lest they may hit him with an
arrow." A friend of his asked him (i.e.
'Abdullah bin Aufa), "Did the Prophet enter
the Ka'ba (during that 'Umra)?" He replied in
the negative. Then he said, "What did he (the
Prophet ) say about Khadija?" He (Abdullah
bin Aufa) said, "(He said) 'Give Khadija the
good tidings that she will have a palace made of
Qasab in Paradise and there will be neither noise
nor any trouble in it."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
20:
Narrated 'Amr bin Dinar:
We asked Ibn 'Umar whether a man who had
performed the Tawaf of the Ka'ba but had not
performed the Tawaf between As-Safa and Al-Marwa
yet, was permitted to have sexual relation with
his wife. He replied, "The Prophet arrived
(at Mecca) and circumambulated the Ka'ba seven
times and then offered a two Rak'at prayer behind
Maqam-lbrahim and then performed the going (Tawaf)
between As-Safa and Al-Marwa (seven times) (and
verily, in Allah's Apostle you have a good
example." And we asked Jabir bin 'Abdullah
(the same question) and he replied, "He
should not go near her till he has finished the
going (Tawaf) between As-Safa and Al-Marwa."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
21:
Narrated Abu Musa Al-Ashari:
I came to the Prophet at Al-Batha' while his
camel was kneeling down and he asked me,
"Have you intended to perform the Hajj?"
I replied in the affirmative. He asked me, 'With
what intention have you assumed Ihram?" I
replied, "I have assumed Ihram with the same
intention as that of the Prophet. He said,
"You have done well. Perform the Tawaf of the
Ka'ba and (the Sai) between As-safa and Al-Marwa
and then finish the Ihram." So, I performed
the Tawaf around the Ka'ba and the Sai) between
As-Safa and Al-Marwa and then went to a woman of
the tribe of Qais who cleaned my head from lice.
Later I assumed the Ihram for Hajj. I used to give
the verdict of doing the same till the caliphate
of 'Umar who said, "If you follow the Holy
Book then it orders you to remain in the state of
Ihram till you finish from Hajj, if you follow the
Prophet then he did not finish his Ihram till the
Hadi (sacrifice) had reached its place of
slaughtering (Hajj-al-Qiran)."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
22:
Narrated Al-Aswad:
Abdullah the slave of Asma bint Abu Bakr, told
me that he used to hear Asma', whenever she passed
by Al-Hajun, saying, "May Allah bless His
Apostle Muhammad. Once we dismounted here with
him, and at that time we were traveling with light
luggage; we had a few riding animals and a little
food ration. I, my sister, 'Aisha, Az-Zubair and
such and such persons performed 'Umra, and when we
had passed our hands over the Ka'ba (i.e.
performed Tawaf round the Ka'ba and between As-Safa
and Al-Marwa) we finished our lhram. Later on we
assumed Ihram for Hajj the same evening."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number
23:
Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar:
Whenever Allah's Apostle returned from a Ghazwa,
Hajj or 'Umra, he used to say Takbir thrice at
every elevation of the ground and then would say,
"None has the right to be worshipped but
Allah; He is One and has no partner. All the
kingdoms is for Him, and all the praises are for
Him, and He is Omnipotent. We are returning with
repentance, worshipping, prostrating, and praising
our Lord. He has kept up His promise and made His
slave victorious, and He Alone defeated all the
clans of (non-believers)."
Volume 3, Book 27, Number

Narrated Ibn Umar:
Whenever Allah's Apostle left for Mecca, he

middle of the valley of Dhul-Hulaifa and used to
pass the night there till morning.

Narrated Humaid:
Anas said, "Whenever Allah's Apostle
returned from a journey, he, on seeing the high
places of Medina, would make his she-camel proceed
faster; and if it were another animal, even then
he used to make it proceed faster."
Narrated Humaid that the Prophet used to make
it proceed faster out of his love for Medina.

Narrated Abu Ishaq:
I heard Al-Bara' saying, "The above Verse
was revealed regarding us, for the Ansar on
returning from Hajj never entered their houses
through the proper doors but from behind. One of
the Ansar came and entered through the door and he
was taunted for it. Therefore, the following was
revealed: --
"It is not righteousness That you enter
the houses from the back, But the righteous man is
He who fears Allah, Obeys His order and keeps away
from What He has forbidden So, enter houses
through the proper doors." (2.189)
Volume 3, Book 27, Number

torture as it prevents one from eating, drinking

fulfilled, one should return quickly to one's
family."

32:
Narrated Zaid bin Aslam from his father:
I was with Ibn 'Umar on the way to Mecca, and
he got the news that Safiya bint Abu Ubaid was
seriously ill. So, he hastened his pace, and when
the twilight disappeared, he dismounted and
offered the Maghrib and 'Isha' prayers together.
Then he said, "I saw that whenever the
Prophet had to hasten when traveling, he would
delay the Maghrib prayer and join them together
(i.e. offer the Maghrib and the Isha prayers
together)."
