Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, said:
We, in the state of Ihram, came with the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) for Ifrad Hajj (with the aim of Hajj only), and ''A''ishah set out for ''Umrah, and when we reached Sarif, she (''A''ishah) entered in the state of monthly period; we proceeded on till we reached (Makkah) and circumambulated the Ka''bah and ran between Al-Safa and Al-Marwah; and the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) commanded that one who among us had no sacrificial animal with him should put off Ihram. We asked: What does this "putting off" imply? He said: Getting out completely from the state of Ihram, (so we put off Ihram), and we turned to our wives and applied perfume and put on our clothes, and we were at a four night''s distance from ''Arafah. And we again put on Ihram on the day of Tarwiah (8th of Dhul-Hijjah). The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) came to ''A''ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, and found her weeping, and asked: What is the matter with you? She said: The matter is that I have entered in the monthly period, and the people had put off Ihram, but I did not and I did not circumambulate the House, and the people are going for Hajj now (but I cannot go), whereupon he said: It is the matter which Allah has ordained for the daughters of Adam, so now take a bath and put on Ihram for Hajj. She (''A''ishah) did accordingly, and stayed at the places of staying till the monthly period was over. She then circumambulated Ka''bah (the House), and (ran between) Al-Safa and Al-Marwah. He (the Holy Prophet) then said: Now both your Hajj and ''Umrah are complete, whereupon she said: I feel in my mind that I did not circumambulate the House till I performed Hajj (I missed the circumambulation of ''Umrah). Thereupon he (Allah''s Messenger) said: ''Abdul-Rahman, take her to Al-Tan''im (so as to enable her) to perform ''Umrah (separately), and it was the night at Hasbah.
