Those who refrained from what the pilgrim in ihram refrains from

Sayyiduna Umar, Sayyiduna Ali and Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) said concerning a man who sends off his sacrificial animal (hady): he is to abstain from the things that a person in ihram abstains from, except that he does not recite the talbiyah.

Ja'far said: He should fix a day with them (the people he sends his sacrificial animal with); then, when the day comes on which he agreed with them that it would be marked (ish'ar), he should abstain from the things that a person in ihram abstains from.

When Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) sent off his sacrificial animal (hady), he would abstain from all the things that a person in ihram abstains from, except that he would not recite the talbiyah.

Rabi'ah bin Abdullah bin al-Hudayr said: I saw Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) stripped of his clothes (in the state of ihram) on the pulpit of Basrah, when he was the governor of Basrah during the caliphate of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). I asked the people about this, and they said that he had ordered his sacrificial animal (hady) to be garlanded, and that is why he had stripped.

Then I met Sayyiduna Ibn al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) and mentioned that to him, and he said: "It is an innovation (bid'ah), by the Lord of the Ka'bah!"

Muhammad (Ibn Sirin) said: When a man sends a sacrificial animal (hady) with someone, he should tell him to garland it on such-and-such a day at such-and-such a time; then on that day he should abstain from all the things that a person in ihram abstains from.
