5. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Kufiy from Ali ibn Mahziyar from Fadalah ibn Ayyub from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said, ‘One who drives an animal for offering in al-‘Umrah, must slaughter it before shaving his head. One who drives an animal for offering, in al-‘Umrah must slaughter it in slaughtering place which is between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah and it is al-Hazwarah.’ I asked him (the Imam) about the place of applying expiation for al-‘Umrah. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is in Makkah, unless he delays it until the time for al-Hajj, when it is in Mina’; but applying it earlier is more virtuous and more beloved to me.’”
