He (the Imam) (a.s.), wrote the answer, ‘Yes,’ or that he (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful.’”

When you complete your Salat (prayer) praise Allah and say, ‘O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause,’ then say, ‘O Lord, make me of those who have answered Your call, accepted your promise and obeyed Your command. I am Your servant, in Your control. I cannot safeguard anything unless You safeguard and I do not take except what You give. You have mentioned al-Hajj and I appeal to You to decide for me its completion according to Your book and the Sunnah of Your Holy prophet. Give me strength when I become weak and accept from me its acts with ease and in good health. Make me of the delegates to You with whom You are pleased and made to be pleased, named and recorded. O Lord, complete for me my al-Hajj and al-‘Umrah. O Lord, I want to perform al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous) according to Your book and the Sunnah of Your Holy prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause. If something may happen which may prevent me, then release me as You cause to prevent me, through Your measures that You apply upon me? O Lord, if it will not be al-Hajj, then it is al-‘Umrah during which I will keep my hairs, skin, flesh, blood, bones, bone marrows, and nerves away from women, clothes and perfumes seeking thereby what You want from me and the life hereafter.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is sufficient to say this once when assuming the state of Ihram; then stand up and walk calmly and when the land is level for you walking or riding, then say Talbiyah.’”
