Sahih Muslim 1216a
وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَطَاءٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، - رضى الله عنهما - فِي نَاسٍ مَعِي قَالَ أَهْلَلْنَا أَصْحَابَ مُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِالْحَجِّ خَالِصًا وَحْدَهُ - قَالَ عَطَاءٌ قَالَ جَابِرٌ - فَقَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم صُبْحَ رَابِعَةٍ مَضَتْ مِنْ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ فَأَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَحِلَّ . قَالَ عَطَاءٌ قَالَ " حِلُّوا وَأَصِيبُوا النِّسَاءَ " . قَالَ عَطَاءٌ وَلَمْ يَعْزِمْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَكِنْ أَحَلَّهُنَّ لَهُمْ . فَقُلْنَا لَمَّا لَمْ يَكُنْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ عَرَفَةَ إِلاَّ خَمْسٌ أَمَرَنَا أَنْ نُفْضِيَ إِلَى نِسَائِنَا فَنَأْتِيَ عَرَفَةَ تَقْطُرُ مَذَاكِيرُنَا الْمَنِيَّ . قَالَ يَقُولُ جَابِرٌ بِيَدِهِ - كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ بِيَدِهِ يُحَرِّكُهَا - قَالَ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِينَا فَقَالَ " قَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنِّي أَتْقَاكُمْ لِلَّهِ وَأَصْدَقُكُمْ وَأَبَرُّكُمْ وَلَوْلاَ هَدْيِي لَحَلَلْتُ كَمَا تَحِلُّونَ وَلَوِ اسْتَقْبَلْتُ مِنْ أَمْرِي مَا اسْتَدْبَرْتُ لَمْ أَسُقِ الْهَدْىَ فَحِلُّوا " . فَحَلَلْنَا وَسَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا . قَالَ عَطَاءٌ قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَقَدِمَ عَلِيٌّ مِنْ سِعَايَتِهِ فَقَالَ " بِمَ أَهْلَلْتَ " . قَالَ بِمَا أَهَلَّ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم . فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " فَأَهْدِ وَامْكُثْ حَرَامًا " . قَالَ وَأَهْدَى لَهُ عَلِيٌّ هَدْيًا فَقَالَ سُرَاقَةُ بْنُ مَالِكِ بْنِ جُعْشُمٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلِعَامِنَا هَذَا أَمْ لأَبَدٍ فَقَالَ " لأَبَدٍ " .
Muhammad ibn Hatim narrated this to me: Yahya ibn Saeed narrated to us, from Ibn Jurayj. (Another chain:) Abd ibn Humayd informed us: Muhammad ibn Bakr informed us: Ibn Jurayj said: Abu al-Zubayr informed me that he heard Jabir ibn Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them) say: We, the Companions of Muhammad, entered ihram for Hajj alone. Jabir said: The Prophet arrived on the morning of the fourth day of Dhu al-Hijja and instructed us to exit ihram. Ata said that he said: Exit ihram and have intercourse with your wives. Ata said: He did not make it obligatory for them, but made their wives lawful to them. We said: When there are only five days between us and Arafat, he instructs us to go to our wives and then arrive at Arafat with our penises dripping semen. Jabir gestured with his hand—I can almost see him moving it. The Prophet stood among us and said: You know that I am the most God-fearing of you toward Allah, the most truthful, and the most dutiful. Were it not for my sacrificial animal, I would exit ihram as you do. If I had known in advance what I learned later, I would not have brought a sacrificial animal. So exit ihram. We exited, listened, and obeyed. Jabir said: Ali returned from his mission. The Prophet asked: What did you enter ihram for? He said: For what the Prophet entered ihram for. The Messenger of Allah said to him: Offer a sacrifice and remain in the consecrated state. Ali brought him a sacrificial animal. Suraqa ibn Malik ibn Jushum said: Messenger of Allah, is this for this year of ours, or forever? He said: Forever.
