5. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Kufiy from Ali ibn Mahziyar from Fadalah ibn Ayyub from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘One who drives an animal for offering in al-‘Umrah, must slaughter it before shaving his head. One who drives an animal for offering, in al-‘Umrah must slaughter it in slaughtering place which is between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah and it is al-Hazwarah.’ I asked him (the Imam) about the place of applying expiation for al-‘Umrah. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is in Makkah, unless he delays it until the time for al-Hajj, when it is in Mina’; but applying it earlier is more virtuous and more beloved to me.’”

1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn ‘Isma‘il from Muhammad ibn al-Fudayl from abu al-Sabbah al-Kinaniy who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who sends an animal for offering with a people, sets the time when they mark their animals for offering and assuming the state of Ihram. He (the Imam) said, ‘At such time all things unlawful for them become unlawful for him until the animal for offering reaches its destination.’ I then asked, ‘What will happen if they cannot reach in the appointed time which is set up?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He must not become as one not in the state of Ihram on the appointed day which he has set up with them.’”
