Hadith 2719
حَدَّثَنَا
أَبُو بِشْرٍ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا
خَالِدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنِ
الْجُرَيْرِيِّ ، عَنْ
أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ
لابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ : الرَّمَلُ ثَلاثَةُ أَشْوَاطٍ بِالْبَيْتِ ، وَأَرْبَعَةٌ مَشْيًا ، إِنَّ قَوْمَكَ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهَا سُنَّةٌ ، قَالَ : صَدَقُوا ، وَكَذَبُوا ، قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَكَّةَ ، فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ بِهِ أَهْلُ مَكَّةَ ، قَالُوا : انْظُرُوا إِلَى أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ لا يَقْدِرُونَ أَنْ يَطَّوَّفُوا بِالْبَيْتِ مِنَ الْهُزَالِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَرُوهُمْ مَا يَكْرَهُونَ "
Hazrat Abu Tufail narrates that I asked Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) that your people believe that performing raml (brisk walking) in three circuits of the Tawaf of the Ka'bah and walking at a normal pace in four circuits is Sunnah. He replied that they have spoken the truth, but part of what they say is incorrect. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to Makkah Mukarramah, and when the people of Makkah heard of his arrival, they said, "Look, Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions will not even be able to perform Tawaf of the Ka'bah due to weakness." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Show them the strength and power that they dislike."
Hadith 2720
حَدَّثَنَا
نَصْرُ بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
أَسَدٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا
حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ
أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ
سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ
ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَنَّ قُرَيْشًا ، قَالَتْ : إِنَّ مُحَمَّدًا ، وَأَصْحَابَهُ قَدْ وَهَنَتْهُمْ حُمَى يَثْرِبَ ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِعَامِهِ الَّذِي قَدِمَ فِيهِ ، قَالَ لأَصْحَابِهِ : " أَرْمِلُوا بِالْبَيْتِ ثَلاثًا لِيَرَى الْمُشْرِكُونَ قُوَّتَكُمْ " ، فَلَمَّا رَمَلُوا ، قَالَتْ قُرَيْشٌ : مَا وَهَنَتْهُمْ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the people of Quraysh said that Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions have been completely weakened by the fever of Yathrib. So when the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) came to Makkah Mukarramah in the year of the treaty, he said to his companions: "While performing Tawaf of the Sacred House, walk briskly in the first three circuits so that the polytheists may see your strength and power." Therefore, when the companions performed raml, the Quraysh said that the fever has not weakened them at all.
