12. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil ibn Darraj from Sawrah ibn Kulayb who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a woman of our family who was with us and was ignorant of Ihram, so she did not assume the state of Ihram until we entered Makkah and we forgot to tell her about it. He (the Imam) said, ‘You can instruct her to assume the state of Ihram from wherever she is in Makkah or the Masjid.”’

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn ‘Isma‘il has narrated from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Safwan from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr all from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘When you arrive at al-‘Aqiq from the side of Iraq you should clean your underarms, cut your fingers nails, cleanse your pubic hairs with a certain paste and trim your mustache. It is not harmful whichever you do first. In addition, you should do so at any of designated Mawaqit (places for assuming the state of Ihram) when you are about to assume the state of Ihram by the will of Allah. Thereafter brush your teeth and put on your two pieces of cloths. You should complete it by the will of Allah near Zawal (declining of the sun toward the west at noontime). If it is not at this time it is not harmful; however, I like it to be at that time if there is not any emergency.’”
