Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 24, Hadith 328

It was narrated that Ibn Abbas said: “When the Prophet and his Companions came to Makkah, the idolaters said: ‘The fever of Yathrib has weakened them, and they have suffered a great deal because of it.’ Allah informed His Prophet about that, so he told his Companions to walk rapidly, and to walk (at a normal pace) between the two corners, and the idolaters were on the side of the Stone. They said: ‘They are stronger than such and such.'”

أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ لَمَّا قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَصْحَابُهُ مَكَّةَ قَالَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ وَهَنَتْهُمْ حُمَّى يَثْرِبَ وَلَقَوْا مِنْهَا شَرًّا فَأَطْلَعَ اللَّهُ نَبِيَّهُ عَلَيْهِ الصَّلاَةُ وَالسَّلاَمُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَأَمَرَ أَصْحَابَهُ أَنْ يَرْمُلُوا وَأَنْ يَمْشُوا مَا بَيْنَ الرُّكْنَيْنِ وَكَانَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ مِنَ نَاحِيَةِ الْحِجْرِ فَقَالُوا لَهَؤُلاَءِ أَجْلَدُ مِنْ كَذَا ‏.‏

Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 24, Hadith 328

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan an-Nasa’i collection of hadiths. Within the pantheon of Sunni Islamic hadith collections, the Sunan an-Nasa’i occupies a privileged position as one of the six canonical works. This impressive compilation was the achievement of the 9th century scholar Ahmad ibn Shu’ayb al-Nasa’i, who was renowned for his profound knowledge of prophetic traditions. The book assembles more than 5,700 narrations covering the full range of the Prophet’s Sunnah. Imam al-Nasa’i distinguished his work through a famously rigorous and selective process, choosing to include only those narrations that met his strict standards of authenticity while rejecting those that were dubious. This has resulted in a collection held in the highest regard for its accuracy.
