حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَعْنِي الْحَنَفِيَّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَفْلَحُ ، عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : " خَرَجْتُ مَعَهُ ، تَعْنِي مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فِي النَّفْرِ الْآخِرِ ، فَنَزَلَ الْمُحَصَّبَ " . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ ابْنُ بَشَّارٍ قِصَّةَ بَعْثِهَا إِلَى التَّنْعِيمِ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ ، قَالَتْ : ثُمَّ جِئْتُهُ بِسَحَرٍ ، فَأَذَّنَ فِي أَصْحَابِهِ بِالرَّحِيلِ ، فَارْتَحَلَ فَمَرَّ بِالْبَيْتِ قَبْلَ صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ فَطَافَ بِهِ حِينَ خَرَجَ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ مُتَوَجِّهًا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ .
Narrated Aishah: I went out along with the Prophet ﷺ during his last march, and he alighted at al-Muhassab. Abu Dawud said: Ibn Bashshar did not mention that she was sent to al-Tanim in this tradition. She said: I then came to him in the morning. He announced to his companions for departure, and he himself departed. He passed the house (the Kabah) before the dawn prayer, and went round it when he proceeded. He then went away facing Madina.

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
Since the Noble Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) stayed here,
and afterwards the Rightly Guided Caliphs (radi Allahu anhum ajma'in) also continued to stay here,
there is no doubt regarding its being recommended (mustahabb).
However, Lady Aisha (radi Allahu anha) and Ibn Abbas (radi Allahu anhu) considered it to be an ordinary stopping place.

Benefits and Issues:
➊ The literal meaning of "Abtah" or "Batha" is a level and spacious piece of land. Here, it refers to the plain between Makkah and Mina. It is also called "Muhassab." (Fath al-Bari: 3/754)
➋ The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) stayed here and performed five prayers: Zuhr, Asr, Maghrib, Isha, and Fajr. On that same night, he went to Makkah, performed the Farewell Tawaf (Tawaf al-Wada‘), and then returned.
➌ Lady Aisha (radi Allahu anha) went for ‘Umrah with her brother, ‘Abd al-Rahman (radi Allahu anhu). When she returned, the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) departed for Madinah from this very place. (Sahih al-Bukhari, Book of ‘Umrah, Chapter: Performing ‘Umrah after Hajj without a sacrificial animal, Hadith: 1786)

642 Lexical Explanation:
By «با لا بطح» and «ابطح», what is meant is the Valley of Muhassab itself.
«اسمع» means more easy and convenient.
«لخروجه» refers to traveling from Makkah to Madinah. From this, it is understood that staying in Muhassab is not among those recommended rites of Hajj. And one opinion is that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam stopped at this place because it is the location where the Quraysh made a pact to sever ties with Banu Hashim in the seventh year of Prophethood, and it was here that they wrote the agreement of boycott. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam stopped here to express gratitude to Allah, as Allah had granted victory to His religion and His Messenger. For this reason, some say that pilgrims should stay here, but apparently, the statement of Aisha radi Allahu anha seems to be correct. «والله اعلم»
