Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ أَبِي الْأَخْضَرِ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ عَنْ سَالِمٍ قَالَ كَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ يُفْتِي بِالَّذِي أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْ الرُّخْصَةِ بِالتَّمَتُّعِ وَسَنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيهِ فَيَقُولُ نَاسٌ لِابْنِ عُمَرَ كَيْفَ تُخَالِفُ أَبَاكَ وَقَدْ نَهَى عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَيَقُولُ لَهُمْ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَيْلَكُمْ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ اللَّهَ إِنْ كَانَ عُمَرُ نَهَى عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَيَبْتَغِي فِيهِ الْخَيْرَ يَلْتَمِسُ بِهِ تَمَامَ الْعُمْرَةِ فَلِمَ تُحَرِّمُونَ ذَلِكَ وَقَدْ أَحَلَّهُ اللَّهُ وَعَمِلَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَفَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَحَقُّ أَنْ تَتَّبِعُوا سُنَّتَهُ أَمْ سُنَّةَ عُمَرَ إِنَّ عُمَرَ لَمْ يَقُلْ لَكُمْ إِنَّ الْعُمْرَةَ فِي أَشْهُرِ الْحَجِّ حَرَامٌ وَلَكِنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ أَتَمَّ الْعُمْرَةِ أَنْ تُفْرِدُوهَا مِنْ أَشْهُرِ الْحَجِّ.
English Translation
Rawh told us: Salih ibn Abi al-Akhdar told us: Ibn Shihab told us, from Salim, who said: 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar used to give the ruling according to what Allah, Mighty and Sublime, had revealed by way of concession regarding tamattu', and which the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, had established as practice. People would say to Ibn 'Umar, "How can you oppose your father, when he forbade that?" 'Abdullah would say to them, "Woe to you! Do you not fear Allah? If 'Umar forbade that, he sought good by it, seeking the completion of the 'Umrah. Why then do you forbid what Allah has made lawful and what the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, practiced? Is the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, not more deserving that you follow his practice than the practice of 'Umar? 'Umar did not tell you that 'Umrah during the months of Hajj is unlawful, but he said that the most complete 'Umrah is that you perform it separately from the months of Hajj."
