حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِکِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ يَقُولُ فِيمَ الرَّمَلَانُ الْيَوْمَ وَالْکَشْفُ عَنْ الْمَنَاکِبِ وَقَدْ أَطَّأَ اللَّهُ الْإِسْلَامَ وَنَفَی الْکُفْرَ وَأَهْلَهُ مَعَ ذَلِکَ لَا نَدَعُ شَيْئًا کُنَّا نَفْعَلُهُ عَلَی عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 1887
Aslam said: I heard Umar ibn al-Khattab say: What is the need of walking proudly (ramal) and moving the shoulders (while going round the Kabah)? Allah has now strengthened Islam and obliterated disbelief and the infidels. In spite of that we shall not forsake anything that we used to do during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
