[Machine] The Prophet of Allah ﷺ sent me to Yemen. I met him in the year in which he performed Hajj and he asked me, "O Abu Musa, what did you say when you entered the state of ihram?" I replied, "I said, 'Here I am, O Allah, at Your service, (here I am)!' like the Ihram of the Prophet ﷺ ." He then asked, "Did you offer a sacrificial animal?" I replied, "No." He said, "Then proceed and perform Tawaf around the Kaaba and between Safa and Marwa, then shave your head." So, I went and performed Tawaf around the Kaaba and between Safa and Marwa, and then I approached some women from the family of Qais, meaning his paternal aunts, and they performed the ritual washing on my head. After that, during the caliphate of Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), I arrived as a pilgrim. While I was narrating to the people near the Kaaba what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had commanded me, a man arrived and said, "Hold on, O man, with your narration, for you do not know what the Commander of the Faithful has introduced in the rituals." So, I said to the people, "Whoever has heard anything should not act upon it until the Commander of the Faithful arrives, and when he arrives, then follow his instructions." When Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) arrived, I said to him, "O Commander of the Faithful, have you introduced any changes in the rituals?" Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) became angry and said, "Indeed, if we were to adopt the Book of Allah alone, Allah has already commanded the completion (of the Hajj rituals), and if we were to follow the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , our Prophet, it would not be permissible (to introduce changes) until the animal for sacrifice reaches its designated place."
