Mecca Sanctity حرمة مكة المكرمة

  • [104 ] عَنْ أَبِي شُرَيْحٍ  قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ الله صلى الله عليه وسلم الغَدَ  مِنْ يَومِ الفَتْحِ يَقُولُ قَولاً ؛ سمعته أذُنًايَ وَوَعَاهُ قَلْبِي  ؛ وأبْصَرَتْهُ عَيْنَايَ حِينَ تَكَلَّم بِه : حَمِدَ الله وَأثْنَى عَليْه  ثُمَّ قَالَ (( إنَّ مَكَّةَ حَرَّمَهَا اللهُ وَلَمْ يُحَرِّمْهَا النَّاسُ فَلا يَحِلُّ لامْرِىٍء  يُؤمِنُ بِالله واليَوْمِ الآخِرِ أنْ يَسْفِكَ بِهَا دَمًا ولا يَعْضِدَ بِها شَجَرَةً فَإنْ أَحَدٌ تَرَخَّصَ لِقِتَالِ رسولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِيهَا  فقولوا : إنَّ الله  قَدْ أَذِنَ  لِرَسُولِهِ وَلَمْ يَأذَنْ  لَكُمْ  وإنَّمَا  أَذِنَ لِي فِيهَا سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ ثُمَّ عَادَتْ حُرْمَتُهَا اليَّوْمَ كَحُرْمَتِهَا بِالأمْسِ وَلْيُبَلِّغَ  الشَّاهِدُ  الغَائِبَ ))

( صحيح البخاري )

Abu Shuraih said, “When `Amr bin Sa`id was sending the troops to Mecca (to fight `Abdullah bin Az- Zubair) I said to him, ‘O chief! Allow me to tell you what the Prophet (peace be upon him) said on the day following the conquests of Mecca. My ears heard and my heart comprehended, and I saw him with my own eyes, when he said it. He glorified and praised Allah and then said, “Allah and not the people has made Mecca a sanctuary. So anybody who has belief in Allah and the Last Day (i.e. a Muslim) should neither shed blood in it nor cut down its trees. If anybody argues that fighting is allowed in Mecca as Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) did fight (in Mecca), tell him that Allah gave permission to His Apostle, but He did not give it to you. The Prophet (peace be upon him) added: Allah allowed me only for a few hours on that day (of the conquest) and today (now) its sanctity is the same (valid) as it was before. So it is incumbent upon those who are present to convey it (this information) to those who are absent.”

(Sahih al-Bukhari)

  • [1829]  عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رضي الله عنها  : أنَّ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ :  خَمْسٌ مِنَ الدَّوَابِّ كُلُّهُنَّ فَاسِقٌ يَقْتُلُهُنَّ فِي الحَرَمِ : الغُرَابُ والحِدَأَةُ  وَالعَقْرَبُ والفَأْرَةُ  وَالكَلْبُ العَقُورُ ))

( صحيح البخاري )

Narrated Aisha

Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said, “Five kinds of animals are harmful and could be killed in the Haram (Sanctuary). These are: the crow, the kite, the scorpion, the mouse and the rabid dog.”

(Sahih al-Bukhari)

  • (2875) عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رضي الله عنهما  قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم : (( إِنَّ هَذَا البَلَدَ حَرَامٌ حَرَّمَهُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ  ؛ لَمْ يَحِلَّ فِيهِ القِتَالُ لأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي ؛ وَأُحِلَّ لِي سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ ؛ فَهُوَ حَرَامٌ بِحُرْمَةِ اللهِ عَزَ وَجَلَّ ))

( سنن النسائي )

It was narrated that Ibn Abbas said

“The Messenger of Allah said on the day of the conquest of Makkah: ‘Allah, the Might and Sublime, has made this land sacred, and it was not permissible to fight therein for anyone before me. It was permitted for me for a few hours of a day, and it is sacred by the decree of Allah, the Might and Sublime.”
