Lu'lu' wal-Marjan

Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated that during the months and etiquettes of Hajj, we set out from Madinah in the state of Ihram for Hajj and camped at the place of Sarif. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said to his companions: Whoever does not have a sacrificial animal with him and wishes to change his Ihram of Hajj to that of Umrah, he may do so. But whoever has a sacrificial animal with him cannot do so. The Prophet (peace be upon him) and some of those who were able among his companions had sacrificial animals with them, so their Ihram was not only for Umrah. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) came to me and I was crying. He asked, "Why are you crying?" I said, "I am hearing what you have said to your companions. Now my Umrah is done." He asked, "What happened?" I said, "I cannot pray (because of menstruation)." The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "There is no harm. You are one of the daughters of Adam, and what has been decreed for all of them has been decreed for you as well. Now enter into Ihram for Hajj. Perhaps Allah will grant you Umrah as well." (Sayyida Aisha narrated that I entered into Ihram for Hajj. Then, when we finished Hajj and came out of Mina and camped at Muhassab, the Prophet (peace be upon him) called Abdul Rahman and said to him, "Take your sister outside the boundary of the Haram (to Tan'eem) so that she may enter into Ihram for Umrah from there, then perform Tawaf and Sa'i. We will wait for you here." We reached the Prophet (peace be upon him) in the middle of the night. He asked, "Are you finished?" I said, "Yes." The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) then announced departure among his companions. Those who performed the farewell Tawaf of the House of Allah left before the morning prayer and set out towards Madinah.
