Hadith record

4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Dawud from Hammad who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the people of Makkah if they can perform al- Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous). He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not permissible for them to perform al- Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous).’ I then asked if a resident could perform al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous). He (the Imam) said, ‘If one resides there for one or two years he is considered as people of Makkah.’ I then asked if one who stays there for one month can he perform al-Hajj al- Tamattu‘ (advantageous)? He (the Imam) said, ‘He must perform al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous).’ I then asked, ‘Wherefrom must he commence his al-Hajj?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He must go out of al-Haram (the sacred area).’ I then asked, ‘Where must he say Talbiyah for al-Hajj?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He must say Talbiyah from where people say it.’”
