Yahya related to me from Malik from Said ibn Abi Said al-Maqburi that Ubayd ibn Jurayj once said to Abdullah ibn Umar, "Abu Abd ar- Rahman, I have seen you doing four things which I have never seen any of your companions doing." He said, "What are they, Ibn Jurayj?" and he replied, "I have seen you touching only the twoYamani corners, I have seen you wearing hairless sandals, I have seen you using yellow dye, and, when you were at Makka and everybody had started doing talbiya after seeing the new moon, I saw that you did not do so until the eighth of Dhu'l-Hijja."

Abdullah ibn Umar replied, "As for the corners, I only ever saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) touching the two Yamani corners. As for the sandals, I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wearing hairless sandals and doing wudu in them, and I like wearing them. As for using yellow dye, I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) using it, and I also like to use it for dyeing things with. As for doing talbiya, I never saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) begin doing so until he had set out on the animal he was riding on (i.e. for Mina and Arafa)."
