حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا أَيُّوبَ الأَنْصَارِيَّ، خَرَجَ حَاجًّا حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ بِالنَّازِيَةِ مِنْ طَرِيقِ مَكَّةَ أَضَلَّ رَوَاحِلَهُ وَإِنَّهُ قَدِمَ عَلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ اصْنَعْ كَمَا يَصْنَعُ الْمُعْتَمِرُ ثُمَّ قَدْ حَلَلْتَ فَإِذَا أَدْرَكَكَ الْحَجُّ قَابِلاً فَاحْجُجْ وَأَهْدِ مَا اسْتَيْسَرَ مِنَ الْهَدْىِ .
Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said thatSulayman ibn Yasar told him that Abu Ayyub al-Ansari once set off todo hajj and then, when he reached an-Naziya, on the road to Makka, hisriding beasts strayed. He reached Umar ibn al-Khattab on the day ofsacrifice and told him what had happened and Umar said, "Do whatsomeone doing umra would do, and then you can leave ihram, and thenwhen the hajj next comes upon you, do it and sacrifice whatever animalis easy for you ."
