The Messenger of Allah ﷺ intended to perform hajj. A woman said to her husband: Let me perform hajj along with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: I have nothing on which I can let you perform hajj. She said: You may perform hajj on your such-and-such camel. He said: That is dedicated to the cause of Allah, the Exalted. He then came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: My wife has conveyed her greetings and the blessings of Allah to you. She has asked about performing hajj along with you. She said (to me): Let me perform hajj with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I said (to her): I have nothing upon which I can let you perform hajj. She said: Let me perform hajj on your such-and-such camel. I said: That is dedicated to the cause of Allah, The Exalted. He replied: If you let her perform hajj on it, that would be in the cause of Allah. He said: She has also requested me to ask you: What is that action which is equivalent to performing hajj with you? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Convey my greetings, the mercy of Allah and His blessings to her and tell her that umrah during Ramadan is equivalent to performing hajj along with me.  

أَرَادَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْحَجَّ فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ لِزَوْجِهَا أَحِجَّنِي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى جَمَلِكَ فَقَالَ مَا عِنْدِي مَا أُحِجُّكِ عَلَيْهِ قَالَتْ أَحِجَّنِي عَلَى جَمَلِكَ فُلاَنٍ قَالَ ذَاكَ حَبِيسٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ﷻ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ امْرَأَتِي تَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلاَمَ وَرَحْمَةَ اللَّهِ وَإِنَّهَا سَأَلَتْنِي الْحَجَّ مَعَكَ قَالَتْ أَحِجَّنِي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ مَا عِنْدِي مَا أُحِجُّكِ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَتْ أَحِجَّنِي عَلَى جَمَلِكَ فُلاَنٍ فَقُلْتُ ذَاكَ حَبِيسٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوْ أَحْجَجْتَهَا عَلَيْهِ كَانَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ قَالَ وَإِنَّهَا أَمَرَتْنِي أَنْ أَسْأَلَكَ مَا يَعْدِلُ حَجَّةً مَعَكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَقْرِئْهَا السَّلاَمَ وَرَحْمَةَ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتِهِ وَأَخْبِرْهَا أَنَّهَا تَعْدِلُ حَجَّةً مَعِي يَعْنِي عُمْرَةً فِي رَمَضَانَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wanted to perform Hajj, so a woman said to her husband, "Let me go for Hajj with the Messenger of Allah." He replied, "I do not have anything to perform Hajj with." She said, "Take me with you on your camel." He responded, "That is what I am anticipating for myself and our child." She said, "Take me with you on your riding animal." He said, "That is what is needed in the way of Allah." She said, "Then sell your dates and raisins." He said, "That is our sustenance, yours and mine." When the Prophet ﷺ returned from Makkah, the woman sent a message to him, saying, "Peace be upon you, Messenger of Allah. Please ask him (her husband) what credits a Hajj with you." Her husband went to the Prophet and said, "O Messenger of Allah, my wife sends greetings to you, and she said that she asked me to take her for Hajj with you. I told her I do not have anything. Then she said, 'Take me on my riding animal.' I responded, 'That is what is needed in the way of Allah.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'If you had taken her, you would have been rewarded for performing Hajj in the way of Allah.' The Prophet ﷺ then laughed in astonishment at her eagerness to perform Hajj." He (the husband) continued, "She also requested me to ask you what is equivalent to a Hajj with you." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Tell her peace and mercy from me, and inform her that performing Umrah in Ramadan is equivalent to a Hajj with me."  

أَرَادَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْحَجَّ فَقَالَتِ امْرَأَةٌ لِزَوْجِهَا حُجَّ بِي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا عِنْدِي مَا أُحِجُّكِ عَلَيْهِ قَالَتْ فَحَجَّ بِي عَلَى نَاضِحِكَ فَقَالَ ذَاكَ نَعْتَقِبُهُ أَنَا وَوَلَدُكِ قَالَتْ فَحُجَّ بِي عَلَى جَمَلِكَ فُلَانٍ قَالَ ذَلِكَ حَبِيسٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ قَالَتْ فَبِعْ تَمْرَ رِقِّكَ قَالَ ذَاكَ قُوتِي وَقُوتُكِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِنْ مَكَّةَ أَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ زَوْجَهَا فَقَالَتْ أقْرِئْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِنِّي السَّلَامَ وَسَلْهُ مَا يَعْدِلُ حَجَّةً مَعَكَ؟ فَأَتَى زَوْجُهَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ امْرَأَتِي تُقْرِئُكَ السَّلَامَ وَرَحْمَةَ اللَّهِ وَإِنَّهَا قَالَتْ أَنَّ أَحُجَّ بِهَا مَعَكَ فَقُلْتُ لَهَا لَيْسَ عِنْدِي قَالَتْ فَحَجَّ بِي عَلَى جَمَلِي فُلَانٍ فَقُلْتُ لَهَا ذَلِكَ حَبِيسٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَمَا إِنَّكِ لَوْ كُنْتِ حَجَجْتِ بِهَا كَانَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ» فَقَالَ فَضَحِكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ تَعَجُّبًا مِنْ حِرْصِهَا عَلَى الْحَجِّ قَالَ وَإِنَّهَا أَمَرْتَنِي أَنْ أَسْأَلَكَ مَا تَعْدِلُ حَجَّةً مَعَكَ؟ قَالَ «أقْرِئهَا مِنِّي السَّلَامَ وَرَحْمَةَ اللَّهِ وَأَخْبِرْهَا أَنَّهَا تَعْدِلُ حَجَّةً مَعِي عُمْرَةٌ فِي رَمَضَانَ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wanted to perform Hajj, and a woman said to her husband, "Take me with you to perform Hajj with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." Her husband replied, "I don't have anything to afford your Hajj." She then asked him to take her on his camel. He replied, "That camel is reserved for the cause of Allah." She asked him to sell his date crop. He replied, "That is our sustenance, both yours and mine." When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived, her husband sent her to him, and she said to him, "Convey to him my greetings of peace and the mercy of Allah, and ask him if there is a way for me to perform Hajj with him." So her husband went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, my wife conveys to you her greetings of peace and the mercy of Allah. She asked me to perform Hajj with her, and I told her I don't have anything to afford her Hajj. Then she asked me to take her on my camel. I told her that the camel is reserved for the cause of Allah." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If you had taken her on the camel, it would have been in the cause of Allah." She then asked me to sell our date crop, and I told her that it is our sustenance, both hers and mine. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed due to her eagerness to perform Hajj. He then said, "She instructed me to ask you what she would receive as a reward for performing Hajj with you." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Convey to her my greetings of peace and the mercy of Allah, and inform her that performing Umrah in Ramadan is equal to performing Hajj with me."
