Sahih al-Bukhari 1085 (Book 18, Hadith 6) #1046
Assumption of Ihram for Umra

SUMMARY: The Prophet and his companions reached Mecca on the fourth of Dhul-Hijja to perform Hajj, but he ordered them to assume Ihram for Umra instead, except those who had a sacrifice with them.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: The Prophet and his companions reached Mecca in the morning of the 4th Dhul-Hijja reciting Talbiya (O Allah! We are obedient to your orders, we respond 4 to your call) . . . intending to perform Hajj. The Prophet ordered his companions to assume the Ihram for Umra instead of Hajj, excepting those who had Hadi (sacrifice) with them.
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ الْبَرَّاءِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ وَأَصْحَابُهُ لِصُبْحِ رَابِعَةٍ يُلَبُّونَ بِالْحَجِّ، فَأَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يَجْعَلُوهَا عُمْرَةً إِلاَّ مَنْ مَعَهُ الْهَدْىُ‏.‏ تَابَعَهُ عَطَاءٌ عَنْ جَابِرٍ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
On the fourth day of Dhul-Hijja, Prophet Muhammad and his companions arrived in Mecca with the intention of performing Hajj. However, he ordered them to assume Ihram for Umra instead, except those who had a sacrifice with them. This is because it was not possible to perform both rituals at once due to time constraints. The ritual of assuming Ihram is an important part of both Hajj and Umrah as it symbolizes one's intention and commitment towards Allah's orders. It also serves as a reminder that all Muslims are equal before Allah regardless of their social or economic status in life. This hadith teaches us that we should always strive to fulfill our obligations towards Allah even if it means sacrificing something else in order to do so.
