Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 39947 — Those who disliked going out during

Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: "Which month is this?" We said: "Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best." The narrator said: He remained silent until we thought that he would give this month a name other than its own. Then he said: "Is this not Dhu al-Hijjah?" We said: "Certainly." He said: "Which city is this?" We said: "Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best." He (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent, and we thought that he would call this city by some other name. He said: "Is this not the Sacred City?" We said: "Yes." He said: "Which day is this?" We said: "Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) know best." The narrator said: He remained silent until we thought that he would give this day some other name. He said: "Is this not the Day of Sacrifice (Yawm al-Nahr)?" We said: "Yes, O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)." Then he said: "Undoubtedly, your blood and your wealth" (the narrator Muhammad bin Sirin said: I think he also said: "and your honor") "are as sacred to one another as the sanctity of this day of yours, in this city, in this month. And soon you will meet your Lord, and He will ask you about your deeds."
