[Machine] It was reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Hajj is a form of jihad, and Umrah is a voluntary act of worship." Al-Shafi'i said in the book (of jurisprudence): So I said to him (someone), "Do you mean some of the people of the east (meaning those who reside in the east)? Are you confirming this statement from the Prophet ﷺ ?" He replied, "No, it is not confirmed." The sheikh said: And it has been narrated from the hadith of Shu'bah (narrator) from Mu'awiyah ibn Ishaq from Abu Salih from Abu Hurairah connected (narrated in a continuous chain). However, the path (of narrators) through Shu'bah is weak. Muhammad ibn Al-Fadl ibn Atiyyah narrated it from Salim Al-Aftas from Ibn Jubair from Ibn Abbas, and this (narration) is (considered) abandoned.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ الْحَجُّ جِهَادٌ وَالْعُمْرَةُ تَطَوُّعٌ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ فِي الْكِتَابِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَعْنِي بَعْضَ الْمَشْرِقِيِيِنَ أَتُثْبِتُ مِثْلَ هَذَا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ هُوَ مُنْقَطِعٌ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ مِنْ حَدِيثِ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ مَوْصُولًا وَالطَّرِيقُ فِيهِ إِلَى شُعْبَةَ طَرِيقٌ ضَعِيفٌ وَرَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ سَالِمٍ الْأَفْطَسِ عَنِ ابْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ مَرْفُوعًا وَمُحَمَّدٌ هَذَا مَتْرُوكٌ  

[Machine] He (the Prophet ﷺ) said: I said, "O Messenger of Allah, is 'Umrah obligatory and its (reward) like that of Hajj?" He said, "No, but if you perform 'Umrah, it is better for you." This was narrated by 'Ubaidullah bin Al-Mughirah, who reported it from Ubaidullah bin 'Abdullah bin 'Utbah. Yahya bin Sufyan and Muhammad bin 'Abdul-Rahim Al-Barki also narrated it from Ibn 'Ufair, who narrated it from Yahya, who narrated it from 'Ubaidullah bin 'Umar. This is an illusion from Al-Baghawi, and he has also been reported by Al-Baghawi from Ja'far bin Musa'ir, who reported it from Ibn 'Ufair and said that Yahya reported it from 'Ubaidullah bin 'Amr.  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ الْعُمْرَةُ وَاجِبَةٌ وَفَرِيضَتُهَا كَفَرِيضَةِ الْحَجِّ؟ قَالَ لَا وَأَنْ تَعْتَمِرَ خَيْرٌ لَكَ كَذَا قَالَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ وَهُوَ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ذَكَرَهُ يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ الْبَرْقِيُّ وَغَيْرُهُمَا عَنِ ابْنِ عُفَيْرٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ وَرَوَاهُ الْبَاغَنْدِيُّ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُسَافِرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُفَيْرٍ قَالَ عَنْ يَحْيَى عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَهَذَا وَهْمٌ مِنَ الْبَاغَنْدِيِّ وَقَدْ  

[Machine] "And that you perform Umrah is better for you in such a way."  

وَأَنَ تَعْتَمِرَ خَيْرٌ لَكٌ كَذَا  

[Machine] On the authority of Jabir, raised differently from that, and both of them are weak.  

عَنْ جَابِرٍ مَرْفُوعًا بِخِلَافِ ذَلِكَ وَكِلَاهُمَا ضَعِيفٌ  

[Machine] He used to recite "And complete the Hajj and Umrah for Allah" [Al-Baqarah 196]. He says it is obligatory. And Al-Sha'bi used to recite it as "And complete the Hajj and Umrah for Allah" [Al-Baqarah 196]. And he says it is voluntary.  

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقْرَأُ {وَأَتِمُّوا الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَةَ لِلَّهِ} [البقرة 196] يَقُولُ هِيَ وَاجِبَةٌ 8754 قَالَ وَكَانَ الشَّعْبِيُّ يَقْرَؤُهَا {وَأَتِمُّوا الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَةَ لِلَّهِ} [البقرة 196] وَيَقُولُ هِيَ تَطَوُّعٌ
