Explanation of the Book of Hajj-09a
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: Ahmad ibn Muhammad narrated to us, saying: Abdullah informed us, saying: Asim informed us, saying: I said to Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): أكنتم تكرهون السعي بين الصفا والمروة ؟ قال : نعم لأنها كانت من شعائر الجاهلية حتى أنزل الله : إن الصفا والمروة من شعائر الله فمن حج البيت أو اعتمر فلا جناح عليه أن يطوف بهما Did you dislike the sa'y (walking) between al-Safa and al-Marwah? He said: Yes, because it was one of the rituals of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance until Allah revealed: "Indeed, al-Safa and al-Marwah are among the symbols of Allah. So, whoever performs Hajj or 'Umrah and walks between them, there is no blame on him.".
