Chapter on the Appointed Times for Entering Ihram
وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِنَّا نُرْوَى بِالْكُوفَةِ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ «إِنَّ مِنْ تَمَامِ حَجِّكَ إِحْرَامُكَ مِنْ دُوَيْرَةِ أَهْلِكَ» فَقَالَ «سُبْحَانَ اَللَّهِ لَوْ كَانَ كَمَا يَقُولُونَ لَمَا تَمَتَّعَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ بِثِيَابِهِ إِلَى اَلشَّجَرَةِ ».
It is narrated from Abu Basir, who said: I said to Abu Abdullah عليه السلام: "In Kufa, it is narrated that Imam Ali عليه السلام said: 'Part of the completion of your Hajj is assuming Ihram from the vicinity of your home.'" Imam عليه السلام replied: "Glory be to Allah سبحانه وتعالى! If it were as they say, the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace and blessings of Allah سبحانه وتعالى be upon him and his family) would not have enjoyed wearing his clothes until reaching the Tree (Dhul-Hulayfah)."
