36 - حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الحَسَن بْنِ أَحْمَدِ بْنِ الوَلِيد رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الحَسَن الصَفَّارُ، عَنْ أَحْمَد بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى، عَنْ أَحْمَدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى، عَن أَحمَدَ بنِ أَبي نَصْرِ البِزَنْطِيِّ قالَ: قُلْتُ لابِي الحَسَن a.sُ: كَيْفَ صَنَعتَ فِي عامِكَ؟ فَقالَ: اعتَمَرتُ فِي رَجَبٍ وَدَخَلتُ مُتَمَتَّعاً وَكَذلِكَ أَفْعَلُ إِذا اعتَمَرتُ.

30-36 Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Waleed - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Al-Hassan al-Saffar quoted on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa, on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Nasr al-Bezanti, “I asked Abil Hassan (s), ‘What did you do last year?’ He (s) said, ‘I performed the Umra (minor) pilgrimage in the (Arabic) month of Rajab, and performed the ‘Tamatu (major) Hajj pilgrimage during the prescribed times for the Hajj. I do this whenever I perform the Umra.’”
