Sayyiduna al-Bara' bin Azib (may Allah be pleased with him) relates: I was with Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) appointed him governor over Yemen, and I obtained some uqiyahs (of silver) there with him. When he (Sayyiduna Ali, may Allah be pleased with him) came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "I found that Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) had filled the house with perfume, so I passed by keeping clear of her. She asked: 'What is the matter with you? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered his Companions, and they have come out of ihram (after performing Umrah).'" He (Sayyiduna Ali, may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I said to her: 'I have entered ihram with the same intention with which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered it.'" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I have brought the sacrificial animals with me and I have performed Hajj al-Qiran." And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said to his Companions: "Had I known beforehand about my affair what I came to know later, I would have done just as you have done; but I have brought the sacrificial animals (hady) with me and I have performed Hajj al-Qiran." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said (to Sayyiduna Ali, may Allah be pleased with him): "Slaughter sixty-seven or sixty-six of the sacrificial camels, keep thirty-three or thirty-four for yourself, and take a piece of meat from every camel."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Abu Ishaq except Yunus, and Hajjaj bin Muhammad is alone in narrating it."
