What Suffices for Hajjata al-Islam and What Does Not Suffice? (The following Chapter is best explained by fatwa).

5ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ قَالَ كَتَبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِمْرَانَ الْهَمَدَانِيُّ إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَنِّي حَجَجْتُ وَأَنَا مُخَالِفٌ وَكُنْتُ صَرُورَةً فَدَخَلْتُ مُتَمَتِّعاً بِالْعُمْرَةِ إِلَى الْحَجِّ قَالَ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ أَعِدْ حَجَّكَ.
5. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ali ibn Mahziyar from who has said the following: “Ibrahim ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Umar al-Hamadaniy once wrote to abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, and asked, ‘I performed al-Hajj and I was against ’A’immah, and it was my first al-Hajj; so I entered Makkah with al-‘Umrah for al-Hajj. He (the Imam) wrote to him the answer, ‘Do your al-Hajj again.”’
