1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Sinan from ibn Muskan from Sa‘id al-A’raj who has said the following:

“Abu ‘ Abd Allah , has said, ‘Whoever is for al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous) in the months of al-Hajj. then remains in Makkah until the time of coming al-Hajj, he owes one sheep. Those who are for al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous) in a time other than the months of al-Hajj, then remain in (Makkah) until it is time for al-Hajj, they do not owe anything because it is a Mufrad al-Hajj and al- Adha’. He (the Imam) said, ‘(Offering sacrifice) is on the people of the cities.”’
