I left for Mecca for Hajj-at-Tamattuʿ assuming Ihram for ʿUmra. I reached Mecca three days before the day of Tarwiya (8th Dhul-Hijja). Some people of Mecca said to me, "Your Hajj will be like the Hajj performed by the people of Mecca (i.e. you will lose the superiority of assuming Ihram from the Miqat). So I went to ʿAta' asking him his view about it. He said, "Jabir bin ʿAbdullah narrated to me, 'I performed Hajj with Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the day when he drove camels with him. The people had assumed Ihram for Hajj-al-Ifrad. The Prophet ﷺ ordered them to finish their Ihram after Tawaf round the Kaʿba, and between Safa and Marwa and to cut short their hair and then to stay there (in Mecca) as non-Muhrims till the day of Tarwiya (i.e. 8th of Dhul-Hijja) when they would assume Ihram for Hajj and they were ordered to make the Ihram with which they had come as for ʿUmra only. They asked, 'How can we make it ʿUmra (Tamattuʿ) as we have intended to perform Hajj?' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Do what I have ordered you. Had I not brought the Hadi with me, I would have done the same, but I cannot finish my Ihram till the Hadi reaches its destination (i.e. is slaughtered).' So, they did (what he ordered them to do)."  

قَدِمْتُ مُتَمَتِّعًا مَكَّةَ بِعُمْرَةٍ فَدَخَلْنَا قَبْلَ التَّرْوِيَةِ بِثَلاَثَةِ أَيَّامٍ فَقَالَ لِي أُنَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ تَصِيرُ الآنَ حَجَّتُكَ مَكِّيَّةً فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَطَاءٍ أَسْتَفْتِيهِ فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنِي جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ؓ أَنَّهُ حَجَّ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَوْمَ سَاقَ الْبُدْنَ مَعَهُ وَقَدْ أَهَلُّوا بِالْحَجِّ مُفْرَدًا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ أَحِلُّوا مِنْ إِحْرَامِكُمْ بِطَوَافِ الْبَيْتِ وَبَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ وَقَصِّرُوا ثُمَّ أَقِيمُوا حَلاَلاً حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ التَّرْوِيَةِ فَأَهِلُّوا بِالْحَجِّ وَاجْعَلُوا الَّتِي قَدِمْتُمْ بِهَا مُتْعَةً فَقَالُوا كَيْفَ نَجْعَلُهَا مُتْعَةً وَقَدْ سَمَّيْنَا الْحَجَّ فَقَالَ افْعَلُوا مَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ فَلَوْلاَ أَنِّي سُقْتُ الْهَدْىَ لَفَعَلْتُ مِثْلَ الَّذِي أَمَرْتُكُمْ وَلَكِنْ لاَ يَحِلُّ مِنِّي حَرَامٌ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ الْهَدْىُ مَحِلَّهُ فَفَعَلُوا قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد اللَّهِ أَبُو شِهَابٍ لَيْسَ لَهُ مُسْنَدٌ إِلَّا هَذَا  

[Machine] I arrived in Mecca while enjoying the Umrah. We arrived three days before Tarwiyah, and the people of Mecca told me that my Hajj will now be categorized as a Makki Hajj. I visited Ata ibn Abi Rabah to seek his advice, and he said that Jabir ibn Abdullah told him that he performed Hajj with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the day of Saaq Al-Budan, and they had entered Mecca for Hajj separately. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ told them to start their Ihram by performing Tawaf around the Kaaba and between Safa and Marwa, and to continue their rituals until the day of Tarwiyah when they should enter into the state of Hajj. They should also consider the acts they have already performed as part of their Umrah. They asked how they could consider it an Umrah when they have already called it Hajj. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Do as I have commanded you. Had it not been for the fact that I have already slaughtered my animal, I would have done what I commanded you. But it is not permissible for me to perform a prohibited act until the place of sacrifice is reached." So they did as instructed, and the story of Suraqah ibn Malik is not mentioned.  

قَدِمْتُ مَكَّةَ وَأَنَا مُتَمَتِّعٌ بِعُمْرَةٍ فَقَدِمْنَا قَبْلَ التَّرْوِيَةِ بِثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ فَقَالَ لِي أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ تَصِيرُ الْآنَ حَجَّتُكَ مَكِّيَّةً فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ أَسْتَفْتِيهِ فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنِي جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ أَنَّهُ حَجَّ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ سَاقَ الْبُدْنَ وَقَدْ أَهَلُّوا بِالْحَجِّ مُفْرَدًا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَحِلُّوا مِنْ إِحْرَامِكُمْ بِطَوَافٍ بِالْبَيْتِ وَبَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ وَأَقِيمُوا حَلَالًا حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ التَّرْوِيَةِ فَأَهِلُّوا بِالْحَجِّ وَاجْعَلُوا الَّذِي قَدِمْتُمْ بِهَا مُتْعَةً» قَالُوا كَيْفَ نَجْعَلُهَا مُتْعَةً وَقَدْ سَمَّيْنَا الْحَجَّ؟ فَقَالَ «افْعَلُوا مَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ فَلَوْلَا أَنِّي سُقْتُ الْهَدْيَ لَفَعَلْتُ مِثْلَ الَّذِي أَمَرْتُكُمْ وَلَكِنِّي لَا يَحِلُّ مِنِّي حَرَامٌ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ الْهَدْيُ مَحِلَّهُ» فَفَعَلُوا وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ قِصَّةَ سُرَاقَةَ بْنِ مَالِكٍ
