حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ مُزَاحِمِ بْنِ أَبِي مُزَاحِمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ مُحَرِّشٍ الْكَعْبِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم خَرَجَ مِنَ الْجِعْرَانَةِ لَيْلاً مُعْتَمِرًا فَدَخَلَ مَكَّةَ لَيْلاً فَقَضَى عُمْرَتَهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ مِنْ لَيْلَتِهِ فَأَصْبَحَ بِالْجِعْرَانَةِ كَبَائِتٍ فَلَمَّا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ مِنَ الْغَدِ خَرَجَ مِنْ بَطْنِ سَرِفَ حَتَّى جَاءَ مَعَ الطَّرِيقِ طَرِيقِ جَمْعٍ بِبَطْنِ سَرِفَ فَمِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ خَفِيَتْ عُمْرَتُهُ عَلَى النَّاسِ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ . وَلاَ نَعْرِفُ لِمُحَرِّشٍ الْكَعْبِيِّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم غَيْرَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ .
Muharrish Al-Kabi Narrated from:
The Messenger Of Allah Left Al-Ji'Irranah During The Night For Umrah, Then He Entered Makkah During He Night And Performed His Umrah. Then He Left There During The Night, Then He Was In Al-Ji'Irranah By The Morning, As If He Had Spent The Night. When The Sun Passed The Zenith In The Morning He Left From The Midst Of Sarif Until He Came On A Road From Amidst Sarif. It Is Because Of This That His Umrah Was Concealed From The People.

Summary of Jami at-Tirmidhi Hadith 935
This hadith gives a clear travel description of the Prophet's Umrah from Al-Ji'ranah. Muharrish Al-Kabi narrates that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم left at night for Umrah, entered Makkah at night, completed his Umrah, left during that same night, and was back at Al-Ji'ranah by morning as if he had spent the night there. The report then explains that when the sun passed the zenith, he left from Sarif by a route, and this is why his Umrah was hidden from people. The teaching is mainly historical within the text: it records timing, movement, and why many people did not notice that Umrah.
