7. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla’ ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Ali from Aban ibn ‘Uthman from Sama‘ah who has said the following: “I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about a man who resides in Makkah: if he can perform al-‘Umrah of al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous). He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, he can do so. He goes out to a Miqat (place for assuming the state of Ihram) to say Talbiyah, if he likes.’”

Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.

8. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from those whom he has mentioned who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), has said, ‘If one enters Makkah to perform al-Hajj for others then remains in Makkah for one year, he is considered as one of the people of Makkah. If he wants to perform al-Hajj for himself or wants to perform al-‘Umrah after returning from ‘Arafat, he cannot then assume the state of Ihram in Makkah. He must go out to a Miqat (place for assuming the state of Ihram) and every time he changes, he is required to go to a Miqat (place for assuming the state of Ihram).”’

9. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Safwan from Abu al-Fadl who said the following: “I resided in Makkah and I asked Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.), about wherefrom should I assume the state of Ihram for al-Hajj. He (the Imam) said, ‘You must assume the state of Ihram from where the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, did which is al-Ja‘ranah, which is the place where victory came to him several times like the victory of Ta’if, Khaybar and the Victory.’ I then asked, ‘When should I go out?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘If it is your first al-Hajj, you can go out on the second day of Dhu al-Hajjah, but if it is not your first al-Hajj, then you can go out on the fifth of Dhu al-Hajjah.’”

10. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ‘Isma‘il ibn Marrar from Yunus from Sama‘ah from Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) who said, “If a resident of Makkah enters it for ‘Umrah in non-Hajj months, like Rajab, Sha‘ban or the month of Ramadan or other months, except the months of Hajj, for the months of Hajj are Shawwal, Dhu al-Qa’dah and Dhu al-Hijjah; whoever enters it (Makkah) for 'Umrah in non-Hajj months and thereafter wants to assume the state of Ihramn, let him go out to al-Ja‘ranah. He can assume the state of Ihram there, then go to Makkah and continue Talbiyah until he can see the House. He then must perform Tawaf around the House, pray a two Rak‘at Salat (prayer) near Maqam (station) of Ibrahim (AS), then he must go for Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah. He then must complete Taqsir (cut or trim a part of his nails or hair) and come out of the state of Ihram. Thereafter, on the day of al-Tarwiyah (eight of Dhu al-Hijjah) he must say Talbiyah (for al-Hajj).”
