عَنِ الزُّبَيْرِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ أَقْبَلْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ لِيَّةَ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا عِنْدَ السِّدْرَةِ وَقَفَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي طَرَفِ الْقَرْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ حَذْوَهَا فَاسْتَقْبَلَ نَخِبًا بِبَصَرِهِ يَعْنِي وَادِيًا وَقَفَ حَتَّى اتَّفَقَ النَّاسُ كُلُّهُمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ ”إِنَّ صَيْدَ وَجٍّ وَعِضَاهَهُ حَرَمٌ مُحَرَّمٌ لِلَّهِ“ وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ نُزُولِهِ الطَّائِفَ وَحِصَارِهِ ثَقِيفَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: We were returning from Liyah in the company of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). When we reached near a lote tree, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood at the corner of a small black mountain opposite the lote tree and looked attentively towards a valley and remained there until all the people gathered. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The game and bushes of the valley of Wajj are also sacred and have been made forbidden for people for the sake of Allah. This incident took place before your siege of Ta’if and Thaqif.
