Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu Umra - 15th Rajab 1425 (1 September 2004)
Narrated by Safwan bin Yala bin Umaiya from his father who said (Radhiallaho anhuma): A man came to the Prophet (sallallaahu'alaihi wasallam) while he was at Ja'rana. The man was wearing a cloak which had traces of Khaluq or Sufra (a kind of perfume). The man asked (the Prophet), "What do you order me to perform in my 'Umra?" So, Allah inspired the Prophet divinely and he was screened by a place of cloth. I wished to see the Prophet being divinely inspired. 'Umar (Radhiallaho anhumo) said to me, "Come! Will you be pleased to look at the Prophet while Allah is inspiring him?" I replied in the affirmative. 'Umar lifted one corner of the cloth and I looked at the Prophet who was snoring. (The sub-narrator thought that he said: The snoring was like that of a camel). When that state was over, the Prophet asked, "Where is the questioner who asked about 'Umra? Put off your cloak and wash away the traces of Khaluq from your body and clean the Sufra (yellow color) and perform in your Umra what you perform in your Hajj (i.e. the Tawaf round the Ka'ba and the Sa'i between Safa and Marwa).
