Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنِ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ، وَمَرْوَانَ، أَنَّهُمَا قَالاَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَامَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فَلَمَّا كَانَ بِذِي الْحُلَيْفَةِقَلَّدَ الْهَدْىَ وَأَشْعَرَهُ وَأَحْرَمَ .
Translation
Al-Miswar bin Makhramah and al-Marwan said the Messenger of Allah (SWAS) proceeded in the year of al-Hudaibiyyah (to Makkah). When he reached Dhu al-Hulaifah, he tied (garlanded) something in the neck of the sacrificial camel (which He took along with him), and made incision in its hump and put on Ihram.
