Chapter: The number of Umrahs performed by the prophet (saws) and when he performed them

Qatida saia. that Anas (Allah be pleased with him) had informed him that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) performed four 'Umras , all during the month of Dhu'l-Qa'da except the one he performed along with Hajj (and these are) the Umra that he performed from al-Hudaibiya or during the time of (the truce of) Hudaibiya in the month of Dhu'l-Qa'da then the Umra of the next year in the month of Dhu'l-Qa'da , then the Umra for which b'e had started from ji'rana , the place where he distributed the spoils of (the battle of) Hunain in the month of Dhu'l-Qa'da , and then the 'Umra that he performed along with his Hajj (on the occasion of the Farewell Pilgrimage).

I asked Anas (Allah be pleased with him) as to how many Pilgrimages had been performed by Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), and he replied: One Hajj and four `Umras were performed by him. The rest of the hadith is the same.

I asked Zaid b. Arqam : In how many military expeditions have you participated with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ? He said : In seventeen (expeditions). He (Abu Ishaq) said : Zaid b. Arqam reported to me that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had led nineteen expeditions. And he performed Hajj only once after Migration , and that was the Farewell Pilgrimage. Abu Ishaq also said : The second (Hajj) he performed at Mecca (before his Migration to Medina)

I and Ibn 'Umar were reclining against the (wall) of the apartment of A'isha and we were listening to the sound produced by the brushing of her teeth. I said Abu Abd al-Rahman (the kunya of 'Abdullah b. Umar) , did Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) perform 'Umra in the month of Rijab ? He said : Yes. I said to 'A'isha : Mother , are you listening to what Abu Abd al-Rabman is saying ? She said : What is he Saying ? I said : He is saying that Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) performed 'Umra during the month of Rajab , whereupon she said : May Allah grant pardon to Abu Abd al-Rahman I By my life he (the Holy Prophet) did not perform 'Umra during the month of Rajab. And never was there an Umra performed by him (the Holy Prophet) in which he ('Abdullah b. 'Umar) did not join him. Ibn 'Umar heard this and said nothing to affirm It or to deny it , but kept quiet.

I and 'Urwah b. Zubair entered the mosque and found 'Abdullah b. 'Umar sitting near the apartment of A'ishah and the people were observing the forenoon prayer (when the sun had sufficiently risen). We asked him about their prayer, and he said: It is bid'a (innovation), Urwah said to him: O Abu Abd al-Rahman, how many 'umrahs did Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) perform? He said: Four 'umrahs, one he performed during the month of Rajab. We were reluctant either to believe him or reject him. We heard the noise of brushing of her teeth by 'A'ishah in her apartment. 'Urwah said: Mother of the Faithful, are you not hearing what Abi 'Abd al-Rahman is saying? She said: What is he saying? Thereupon he ('Urwah) said: He (Ibn 'Umar) states that Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) performed four 'umrahs and one of them during the month of Rajab. Thereupon she remarked: May Allah have mercy upon Abu 'Abd al-Rahman. Never did Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) perform 'Umrah in which he did not accompany him, and he (Allah's Apostle) never performed 'Umrah during the month of Rajab.
