Chapter: Tawaf with ablution

Authentic hadith of Sahih al-Bukhari Sahih al-Bukhari 1641

Narrator:Asmā bint Abu Bakr

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ الْقُرَشِيِّ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ فَقَالَ قَدْ

حَجَّ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَخْبَرَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ أَنَّهُ أَوَّلُ شَىْءٍ بَدَأَ بِهِ حِينَ قَدِمَ أَنَّهُ تَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ طَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ ثُمَّ لَمْ تَكُنْ عُمْرَةً

Narrated Muhammad bin `Abdur-Rahman bin Nawfal Al-Qurashi:

I asked `Urwa bin Az-Zubair (regarding the Hajj of the Prophet (ﷺ) ). `Urwa replied, "Aisha narrated, 'When the Prophet (ﷺ) reached Mecca, the first thing he started with was the ablution, then he performed Tawaf of the Ka`ba and his intention was not `Umra alone (but Hajj and `Umra together).' " Later Abu Bakr I performed the Hajj and the first thing he started with was Tawaf of the Ka`ba and it was not `Umra alone (but Hajj and `Umra together). And then `Umar did the same. Then `Uthman performed the Hajj and the first thing he started with was Tawaf of the Ka`ba and it was not `Umra alone. And then Muawiya and `Abdullah bin `Umar did the same. I performed Hajj with Ibn Az-Zubair and the first thing he started with was Tawaf of the Ka`ba and it was not `Umra alone, (but Hajj and `Umra together). Then I saw the Muhajirin (Emigrants) and Ansar doing the same and it was not `Umra alone. And the last person I saw doing the same was Ibn `Umar, and he did not do another `Umra after finishing the first. Now here is Ibn `Umar present amongst the people! They neither ask him nor anyone of the previous ones. And all these people, on entering Mecca, would not start with anything unless they had performed Tawaf of the Ka`ba, and would not finish their Ihram. And no doubt, I saw my mother and my aunt, on entering Mecca doing nothing before performing Tawaf of the Ka`ba, and they would not finish their lhram. And my mother informed me that she, her sister, Az-Zubair and such and such persons had assumed lhram for `Umra and after passing their hands over the Corner (the Black Stone) (i.e. finishing their Umra) they finished their Ihram."

Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani — Fath al-Bari

قَوْله : ( مَا كَانَ يَبْدَءُونَ بِشَيْءٍ حِينَ يَضَعُونَ أَقْدَامهمْ مِنْ الطَّوَاف بِالْبَيْتِ ) قَالَ اِبْن بَطَّال : لَا بُدَّ مِنْ زِيَادَة لَفْظ " أَوَّل " بَعْدَ لَفْظ " أَقْدَامهمْ " وَأَجَابَ الْكَرْمَانِيُّ بِأَنَّ مَعْنَاهُ مَا كَانُوا يَبْدَءُونَ بِشَيْءٍ آخَر حِينَ يَضَعُونَ أَقْدَامهمْ فِي الْمَسْجِد لِأَجْلِ الطَّوَاف اِنْتَهَى , وَحَاصِله أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَتَعَيَّن حَذْف لَفْظ أَوَّل بَلْ يَجُوز أَنْ يَكُون الْحَذْف فِي مَوْضِع آخَر لَكِنَّ الْأَوَّل أَوْلَى لِأَنَّ الثَّانِي يَحْتَاج إِلَى جَعْل مِنْ بِمَعْنَى مِنْ أَجْل وَهُوَ قَلِيل , وَأَيْضًا فَلَفْظ " أَوَّل " قَدْ ثَبَتَ فِي بَعْض الرِّوَايَات وَثَبَتَ أَيْضًا فِي مَكَان آخَر مِنْ الْحَدِيث نَفْسه وَوَقَعَ فِي رِوَايَة ال…

`Aisha said, "The first thing the Prophet (ﷺ) did on reaching Mecca, was the ablution and then he performed Tawaf of the Ka`ba and that was not `Umra (alone), (but Hajj-al-Qiran). `Urwa added: Later Abu Bakr and `Umar did the same in their Hajj." And I performed the Hajj with my father Az- Zubair…
