MUHAMMAD’S TEACHINGS TO MANKIND
“ The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, performed Unconnected Pilgrimage (1), as well as Abu Bakr (2), Umar (3) and Uthman (4). Mu'āwiyah (5) was the first to forbid it. Footnotes: (1) (Ḥajj at-Tamatu’): A form of the pilgrimage where pilgrims intend to perform pilgrimage after performing 'umrah, preserving their right to take a break from the pilgrimage state of consecration in between. In this form of pilgrimage, it is obligatory on pilgrims to sacrifice a domestic animal. If they cannot afford it, they should fast three days during the pilgrimage and seven days upon their return. Other forms of the pilgrimage are Single Pilgrimage and Paired Pilgrimage. (2) Abū-Bakr as-Siddīq. (3) ‘Umar Ibnul-Khaṭṭāb. (4) 'Uthmān Ibn-‘Affān. (5) Mu'āwiyah Ibn-Abī-Sufyān. ”
