Rituals of Hajj

SUMMARY: A woman named Amra bint Abd ar-Rahman went to Makka and performed the rituals of Hajj, including tawaf of the House, say between Safa and Marwa, and then entered the back of the mosque. She also cut some hair from her head as part of her ritual.

Yahya related to me from Malik fromAbdullah ibn Abi Bakr that a mawla of Amir bint Abd ar-Rahman called Ruqayya told him that she once set out with Amra bint Abd ar-Rahman to go to Makka. She said, ''Amra entered Makka on the eighth of Dhu'l-Hijja, and I was with her. She did tawaf of the House, and say between Safa and Marwa, and then entered the back of the mosque. She asked me, 'Do you have a pair of scissors with you?' and I said, 'No'. She said, 'Then try and find some for me'. I went and looked for some and brought them back and she cut some hair from the tresses of her head.Then, on the day of sacrifice, she slaughtered a sheep".
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، أَنَّ مَوْلاَةً، لِعَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ يُقَالُ لَهَا رُقَيَّةُ أَخْبَرَتْهُ أَنَّهَا، خَرَجَتْ مَعَ عَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِلَى مَكَّةَ - قَالَتْ - فَدَخَلَتْ عَمْرَةُ مَكَّةَ يَوْمَ التَّرْوِيَةِ وَأَنَا مَعَهَا فَطَافَتْ بِالْبَيْتِ وَبَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ ثُمَّ دَخَلَتْ صُفَّةَ الْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَتْ أَمَعَكِ مِقَصَّانِ فَقُلْتُ لاَ ‏.‏ فَقَالَتْ فَالْتَمِسِيهِ لِي ‏.‏ فَالْتَمَسْتُهُ حَتَّى جِئْتُ بِهِ فَأَخَذَتْ مِنْ قُرُونِ رَأْسِهَا فَلَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ النَّحْرِ ذَبَحَتْ شَاةً

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith is about a woman named Amra bint Abd ar-Rahman who went on a pilgrimage to Makka. During her pilgrimage she performed various rituals such as tawaf around the Kaaba, walking between Safa and Marwa hills seven times each, entering into the back part of the mosque in Makka, cutting some hair off her head as part of her ritual sacrifice for Hajj and slaughtering a sheep on Eid al Adha day. This hadith teaches us that performing these rituals is an important part of going on pilgrimage to Makka for Muslims all over the world. It also teaches us about sacrificing animals during Eid al Adha which is an important tradition in Islam that has been practiced since ancient times. Furthermore, it shows us how important it is to follow religious traditions even when we are far away from home or our place of worship.
