The Best of the Pilgrimage Types and the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) Qiran in His Hajj

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is the fact that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed Hajj with Qiran evidence that it is the best of the pilgrimage types?

Answer:
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did this because he brought the sacrificial animals. He entered the state of Ihram as a Qarin because he brought the sacrificial animals from Madinah. The one who brings the sacrificial animals from Madinah does not exit the state of Ihram until after slaughtering the sacrificial animals on the day of Eid. This is what prevented the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) from performing Tamattu’. He wished for it and said: This indicates that the sacrificial animals are better than Qiran, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) wished for it, and he does not wish for anything but the best of deeds. Yes.
