صحيح ابن خزيمه

جماع أبواب ذكر أفعال اختلف الناس فى إباحته للمحرم، نصت سنة النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم أو دلت على إباحتهاChapters on Acts Permitted for the Pilgrim by Sunnah
(374) بَابُ ذِكْرِ الدَّلِيلِ عَلَى أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّمَا نَزَلَ بِالْأَبْطَحِ لِيَكُونَ أَسْمَعَ لِخُرُوجِهِ،Evidence that the Prophet camped at al-Abtah to make his departure more noticeable.
Hadith 2988
حَدَّثَنَا سَلْمُ بْنُ جُنَادَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : " نُزُولُ الْمُحَصَّبِ لَيْسَ مِنَ السُّنَّةِ ، إِنَّمَا نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيَكُونَ أَسْمَحَ لِخُرُوجِهِ " ، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : قَوْلُهَا : لَيْسَ مِنَ السُّنَّةِ تُرِيدُ لَيْسَ مِنَ السُّنَّةِ الَّتِي يَجِبُ عَلَى النَّاسِ الائْتِمَامُ بِفِعْلِهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، إِذْ كُلُّ مَا فَعَلَهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ مِنْ فِعْلِ الْمُبَاحِ فَقَدْ يَقَعُ عَلَيْهِ اسْمُ السُّنَّةِ أَيْ أَنَّ لِلنَّاسِ الاسْتِنَانَ بِهِ إِذْ هُوَ مُبَاحٌ ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ عَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يَفْعَلُوا ذَلِكَ الْفِعْلَ
Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: Staying in the valley of Muhassab is not a Sunnah. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) stayed in this valley only because it was a convenient place for his departure. Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said that staying in the valley of Muhassab is not a Sunnah. By this, she meant that it is not an act that people are obligated to follow. Because all the actions of the Prophet (peace be upon him), even if they are permissible, are referred to as Sunnah. But people can follow this Sunnah because it is permissible, however, this act is not obligatory upon them. (That is, the one who does not do this act will not be sinful nor will any expiation become obligatory upon him.)
