حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْغَنَوِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ كَذَا قَالَ رَوْحٌ عَاصِمٌ وَالنَّاسُ يَقُولُونَ أَبُو عَاصِمٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَزْعُمُ قَوْمُكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ طَافَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ وَأَنَّ ذَلِكَ سُنَّةٌ فَقَالَ صَدَقُوا وَكَذَبُوا قُلْتُ وَمَا صَدَقُوا وَكَذَبُوا قَالَ قَدْ طَافَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ وَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِسُنَّةٍ كَانَ النَّاسُ لَا يُصْدَفُونَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَا يُدْفَعُونَ فَطَافَ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ لِيَسْتَمِعُوا وَلِيَرَوْا مَكَانَهُ وَلَا تَنَالُهُ أَيْدِيهِمْ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2843
It was narrated that Abut- Tufail said: I said to Ibn 'Abbas: Your people arc saying that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) went between as-Safa and al-Marwah on a camel, and that that is Sunnah. He said: They are telling the truth and they are lying, I said: How can they be telling the truth and lying? He said: He did go between as-Safa and al-Marwah on a camel, but that is not Sunnah. The people would not disperse from around the Messenger of Allah and could not be pushed back, so he went [between as-Safa and al-Marwah] on a camel so that they could hear him and see where he was, but their hands could not touch him.
