سَأَلْتُهُ أَ لَيْلًا أَحْرَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) أَمْ نَهَاراً فَقَالَ نَهَاراً قُلْتُ أَيَّ سَاعَةٍ قَالَ صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ فَسَأَلْتُهُ مَتَى تَرَى أَنْ نُحْرِمَ فَقَالَ سَوَاءٌ عَلَيْكُمْ إِنَّمَا أَحْرَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) صَلَاةَ الظُّهْرِ لِأَنَّ الْمَاءَ كَانَ قَلِيلًا كَأَنْ يَكُونَ فِي رُءُوسِ الْجِبَالِ فَيُهَجِّرُ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى مِثْلِ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الْغَدِ وَ لَا يَكَادُ يَقْدِرُونَ عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَ إِنَّمَا أُحْدِثَتْ هَذِهِ الْمِيَاهُ حَدِيثاً .
Translation
Ali, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hammad Bin usman, from Al Halby, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘Did Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> wear <span class="iTxt">Ihraam</span> at night or at daytime?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘At daytime’. I said, ‘At what time?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Al-Zohr Prayer’. So I asked him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘When do you<sup>asws</sup> view we should be wearing <span class="iTxt">Ihraam</span>?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It is the same upon you. But rather, Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> wore <span class="iTxt">Ihraam</span> at Al-Zohr Prayer because the water was scarce. It used to occur in the top parts of the mountains, so the man would leave to acquire that from the morning, and almost was not able upon finding the water, and rather, these waters (today), are newly occurring’.
