Al-Kāfi - The Book of Haj

ِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْ٠َّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَ٠ِ وَابْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ الْجَ٠َّالِ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَ٠) إِنَّ بَعْضَ النَّاسِ يَقُولُ جَرِّدِ الْحَجَّ وَبَعْضَ النَّاسِ يَقُولُ اقْرُنْ وَسُقْ وَبَعْضَ النَّاسِ يَقُولُ تَ٠ْرَةِ إِلَى الْحَجِّ فَقَالَ لَوْ حَجَجْتُ أَلْفَ عَا٠ْ أَقْرُنْهَا إِلاَّ ٠7.

Certain persons of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from ibn abu Najran from Safwan al-Jammal who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of certain people who say that one must perform al-Hajj alone, others say to make it Qiran and drive the offering animal, and still others say to take advantage between al-‘Umrah and al-Hajj.

He (the Imam) (a.s.), said, ‘If I will perform al-Hajj for a thousand years I will not make it Qiran. I will only perform advantageous al- Hajj (al-Hajj al-Tamattu‘ ).’” سكت عنه - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (17/189))
