Ata (may Allah have mercy on him) said that a bird or a gazelle was given as a gift to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) in the sanctuary, and she let it go. On that day Hisham (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Ibn Abi Rabah does not know (this): the Commander of the Believers, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both), was in Makkah for nine years, and the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would come and see them in cages, larks and partridges.
