Hadith 4731

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : اسْتَأْذَنَ الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَبِيتَ بِمَكَّةَ لَيَالِيَ مِنًى مِنْ أَجْلِ سِقَايَتِهِ ، " فَأَذِنَ لَهُ " .
It is narrated from Nafi' (may Allah have mercy on him) on the authority of Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to stay in Makkah during the days of Mina in order to serve the pilgrims by providing them with water, so the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) granted him permission.
