from Muzdalifah to Mina (17). From Asma', that she stopped on the night of Jam' at the house of Muzdalifah, and she stood up to pray, so she prayed, then said: "Has the moon set?" I said (18): "Yes." She said: "Then depart." So we departed and proceeded until she stoned the Jamrah, then she returned and prayed the dawn prayer in her dwelling. I said to her: "O dear lady (19), it seems we have left in the darkness before dawn (20)." She said: "Not at all, my son, for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) granted permission to the women (21)." Both are agreed upon (22). From Aisha, she said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) sent Umm Salamah on the night of the sacrifice, so she stoned the Jamrah before dawn, then she proceeded and performed the tawaf of ifadah." Narrated by Abu Dawud (23). Whoever departs from Jam' before half of the night, and does not return during the night, must offer a blood sacrifice. But if he returns during it (24), there is no blood sacrifice upon him, just like one who departs
