7. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hisham ibn Salim who has said the following: “We were in a group in al-Madinah and we sent someone to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), to ask for permission to visit him (the Imam) and say farewell. He (the Imam) sent back a message saying, ‘Take Ghusl (bath) in al-Madinah; I am afraid you may face difficulties to find water in Dhul Hulayfah, so take Ghusl (bath) in al-Madinah, wear your cloth of Ihram, then come to me one by one or two people at a time.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
