Sayyidah Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: I used to prepare garlands for the sacrificial animals of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) would send those sacrificial animals (to Makkah) while he himself stayed with us in Madinah Munawwarah. Then he (peace be upon him) would not observe the restrictions of Ihram, nor would he avoid anything from which a person in Ihram abstains.
