Sahih Muslim 1277d (Book 15, Hadith 288) #10223
The Significance of Sa'i between Al-Safa' and Al-Marwa

SUMMARY: This hadith explains the importance of performing Sa'i between al-Safa' and al-Marwa as a Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ).

'Urwa b. Zubair reported: I asked 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) ; the rest of the hadith is the same. And in this hadith (these words are also found):" When they (the Companions of the Holy Prophet) asked Allah's Messenger ﷺ about this, they said: Messenger of Allah, we felt reluctant to circumambulate between al-Safa' and al-Marwa. Then Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, revealed this verse:" Verily al-Safa' and al-Marwa are among the Signs of. Allah so he who perform Hajj or Umra it is no sin on him if he should circumambulate between them'.A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) said: Allah's Messenger ﷺ laid down this Sa'i between them as Sunnah (of the Holy Prophet). So it is not advisable for anyone to abandon this Sa'i between them.
وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حُجَيْنُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ، شِهَابٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ ‏.‏ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِنَحْوِهِ وَقَالَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ فَلَمَّا سَأَلُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا كُنَّا نَتَحَرَّجُ أَنْ نَطُوفَ بِالصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ‏{‏ إِنَّ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةَ مِنْ شَعَائِرِ اللَّهِ فَمَنْ حَجَّ الْبَيْتَ أَوِ اعْتَمَرَ فَلاَ جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَطَّوَّفَ بِهِمَا‏}‏ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ قَدْ سَنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الطَّوَافَ بَيْنَهُمَا فَلَيْسَ لأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَتْرُكَ الطَّوَافَ بِهِمَا.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the importance of performing Sa’ee between al Safa and al Marwah as a Sunnah of the Holy Prophet ﷺ. It is narrated by ‘Urwa b. Zubair who reported from ‘Aisha that when people asked Allah's Messenger ﷺ about this ritual they felt reluctant to do it but then Allah revealed a verse in which He said that it is no sin if one performs this ritual during Hajj or Umrah. Thus it became an important part of Islamic tradition to perform this ritual as a sign of obedience to Allah and His Messenger ﷺ. It teaches us that we should always be obedient to Allah and His Messenger ﷺ even if we don't understand why something has been commanded by them because they know what is best for us in our lives both in this world and hereafter.
