First report:
Muhammad ibn Abī Bakr related to us; Fudayl ibn Sulaymān related to us; Mūsā ibn ʿUqbah related to us, saying: Kuraib informed me on the authority of ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAbbās who said:
“The Prophet ﷺ entered Mecca, circumambulated the House seven times (1), performed saʿy between al-Ṣafā and al-Marwah, and did not approach the Kaʿbah again after that ṭawāf until he returned from ʿArafah.”
Al-Bukhārī alone records this ḥadīth.

[Section]
At that very time—while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was camped at al-Abṭaḥ outside Mecca—ʿAlī arrived from Yemen. As noted earlier, the Prophet ﷺ had sent him there as governor after Khālid ibn al-Walīd. When ʿAlī reached Mecca he found his wife, Fāṭimah the daughter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, already out of the state of consecration, just as the wives of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and all those who had not brought a sacrificial animal were. She had applied kohl and put on brightly coloured clothes.

He asked, “Who instructed you to do this?”
She replied, “My father.”
Irritated, ʿAlī went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him that she had dissolved her consecration, put on coloured garments, and applied kohl, while claiming that you had ordered her to do so, O Messenger of Allah.
He ﷺ said, “She has spoken the truth, she has spoken the truth, she has spoken the truth.”

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then asked, “With what intention did you enter iḥrām when you made the pilgrimage obligatory for yourself?”
He replied, “With an intention like that of the Prophet ﷺ.”
He said, “I have the sacrificial animals with me, so do not release your consecration.”

The total number of animals comprised what ʿAlī had brought from Yemen together with what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had brought from Madinah and purchased on the way—one hundred camels in all—and they shared in the sacrifice. All of this has already been set forth in Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim.

This explicit report contradicts the narration cited by the ḥāfiẓ Abū al-Qāsim al-Ṭabarānī, transmitted through ʿIkrimah from Ibn ʿAbbās, which states that ʿAlī met the Prophet ﷺ at al-Juhfah; Allah knows best.

Abū Mūsā was among those who arrived with ʿAlī, but since he had not driven a sacrificial animal, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered him to dissolve his consecration after performing the ṭawāf and saʿy for ʿUmrah. Thus he changed his pilgrimage into an ʿUmrah and became a mutamattiʿ. He continued to give this legal opinion during the caliphate of ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb, but when ʿUmar decided to separate ḥajj from ʿUmrah, Abū Mūsā refrained from issuing his previous verdict out of respect for the Commander of the Believers, ʿUmar—may Allah be pleased with him.
