حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ، عَنْ هِلاَلِ بْنِ خَبَّابٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ ضُبَاعَةَ بِنْتَ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ، أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ الْحَجَّ أَأَشْتَرِطُ قَالَ " نَعَمْ " . قَالَتْ فَكَيْفَ أَقُولُ قَالَ " قُولِي لَبَّيْكَ اللَّهُمَّ لَبَّيْكَ وَمَحِلِّي مِنَ الأَرْضِ حَيْثُ حَبَسْتَنِي " .
Ibn 'Abbas Narrated from:
Duba`ah, daughter of al-Zubair bin `Abd al-Muttalib, came to the Messenger of Allah (SWAS) and said Messenger of Allah (SWAS) I want to perform Hajj; may I make a provision? He said Yes. She asked how should I say? He replied : Say “ Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik (I am at Thy service, Oh Allah, I am at Thy service). The place where I took off Ihram will be where Thou restrainest me.”

Summary of Sunan Abi Dawud Hadith 1776
This Hadith about making a condition in Ihram records the question of Duba'ah bint al-Zubair. She came to the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and said that she wanted to perform Hajj and asked whether she could make a condition. He said yes. When she asked what to say, he taught her to say the Talbiyah and add that her place of leaving Ihram would be where Allah restrained her. The report is direct and personal. It does not list every reason a person may be stopped, but it clearly gives the wording taught to her. For searches like condition in Ihram Hadith or Duba'ah Hajj condition, this narration is the key text in this batch.
What we learn from this hadith
- Duba'ah asked before acting, and the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) answered her question.
- The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) allowed her to make a condition for Hajj.
- He taught her specific wording connected to Talbiyah and being restrained.
- The narration shows a simple way to state a condition in Ihram as given in the text.
