Muwatta Malik #802
Hajj
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ سُمَىٍّ، مَوْلَى أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا بَكْرِ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، يَقُولُ جَاءَتِ امْرَأَةٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَتْ إِنِّي قَدْ كُنْتُ تَجَهَّزْتُ لِلْحَجِّ فَاعْتَرَضَ لِي . فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" اعْتَمِرِي فِي رَمَضَانَ فَإِنَّ عُمْرَةً فِيهِ كَحِجَّةٍ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik that Sumayy, the mawla of Abu Bakr
ibn Abd ar-Rahman, heard Abu Bakribn Abd ar-Rahman say, "A woman came
to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
and said, 'I had arranged to do hajj, but I was prevented,' and the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Do
umra in Ramadan, for doing umra in it is like doing hajj.' "
