Hadith 944
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، نَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: { وَإِذَا فَعَلُوا فَاحِشَةً قَالُوا وَجَدْنَا عَلَيْهَا آبَاءَنَا وَاللهُ أَمَرَنَا بِهَا } - قَالَ: كَانُوا يَطُوفُونَ بِالْبَيْتِ عُرَاةً .
Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) said regarding Allah the Exalted’s statement: ﴿And when they commit an indecency, they say: "We found our fathers doing it, and Allah has commanded us to do it."﴾: What is meant by this is that people used to circumambulate the House of Allah naked, and they used to say: "Our forefathers used to do this, and Allah the Exalted has commanded us to do this."
