حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَکَّةَ وَقَدْ وَهَنَتْهُمْ حُمَّی يَثْرِبَ فَقَالَ الْمُشْرِکُونَ إِنَّهُ يَقْدَمُ عَلَيْکُمْ قَوْمٌ قَدْ وَهَنَتْهُمْ الْحُمَّی وَلَقُوا مِنْهَا شَرًّا فَأَطْلَعَ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ نَبِيَّهُ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَی مَا قَالُوهُ فَأَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يَرْمُلُوا الْأَشْوَاطَ الثَّلَاثَةَ وَأَنْ يَمْشُوا بَيْنَ الرُّکْنَيْنِ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُمْ رَمَلُوا قَالُوا هَؤُلَائِ الَّذِينَ ذَکَرْتُمْ أَنَّ الْحُمَّی قَدْ وَهَنَتْهُمْ هَؤُلَائِ أَجْلَدُ مِنَّا قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَلَمْ يَأْمُرْهُمْ أَنْ يَرْمُلُوا الْأَشْوَاطَ کُلَّهَا إِلَّا إِبْقَائً عَلَيْهِمْ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 1886
Ibn Abbas said The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Makkah while the fever of Yathrib (Madina) had weakened them. Thereupon the disbelievers said “The people whom the fever has weakened and who suffer misery at Madina are coming to you. ” Allaah, the exalted, informed the Prophet ﷺ of what they had said. He, therefore, ordered them to perform ramal (walk proudly with swift pace) in first three circuits and walk ordinarily between the two corners (Yamani Corner and the Black Stone). When they saw them the believers walking proudly, they said” These are the people about whom you mentioned that the fever had weakened them, but they are more vigorous than us. ” Ibn Abbas said “He did not order them to walk proudly in all circuits (of the circumambulation) out of mercy upon them. ”
