On the day of the conquest of Mecca, the Prophet ﷺ said, "There is no more emigration (from Mecca) but Jihad and intentions, and whenever you are called for Jihad, you should go immediately. No doubt, Allah has made this place (Mecca) a sanctuary since the creation of the heavens and the earth and will remain a sanctuary till the Day of Resurrection as Allah has ordained its sanctity. Fighting was not permissible in it for anyone before me, and even for me it was allowed only for a portion of a day. So, it is a sanctuary with Allah's sanctity till the Day of Resurrection. Its thorns should not be uprooted and its game should not be chased; and its luqata (fallen things) should not be picked up except by one who would announce that publicly, and its vegetation (grass etc.) should not be cut." Al-ʿAbbas said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Except Al-Idhkhir, (for it is used by their blacksmiths and for their domestic purposes)." So, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Except Al-Idhkhir."  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَوْمَ افْتَتَحَ مَكَّةَ لاَ هِجْرَةَ وَلَكِنْ جِهَادٌ وَنِيَّةٌ وَإِذَا اسْتُنْفِرْتُمْ فَانْفِرُوا فَإِنَّ هَذَا بَلَدٌ حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ وَهُوَ حَرَامٌ بِحُرْمَةِ اللَّهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ وَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَحِلَّ الْقِتَالُ فِيهِ لأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَلَمْ يَحِلَّ لِي إِلاَّ سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ فَهُوَ حَرَامٌ بِحُرْمَةِ اللَّهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ لاَ يُعْضَدُ شَوْكُهُ وَلاَ يُنَفَّرُ صَيْدُهُ وَلاَ يَلْتَقِطُ لُقَطَتَهُ إِلاَّ مَنْ عَرَّفَهَا وَلاَ يُخْتَلَى خَلاَهَا قَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ فَإِنَّهُ لِقَيْنِهِمْ وَلِبُيُوتِهِمْ قَالَ قَالَ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the day of the conquest of Mecca, "There is no migration now, but there is Jihad (i.e.. holy battle) and good intentions. And when you are called for Jihad, you should come out at once" Messenger of Allah ﷺ also said, on the day of the conquest of Mecca, "Allah has made this town a sanctuary since the day He created the Heavens and the Earth. So, it is a sanctuary by Allah's Decree till the Day of Resurrection. Fighting in it was not legal for anyone before me, and it was made legal for me only for an hour by daytime. So, it (i.e. Mecca) is a sanctuary by Allah's Decree till the Day of Resurrection. Its thorny bushes should not be cut, and its game should not be chased, its fallen property (i.e. Luqata) should not be picked up except by one who will announce it publicly; and its grass should not be uprooted," On that Al-ʿAbbas said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Except the Idhkhir, because it is used by the goldsmiths and by the people for their houses." On that the Prophet ﷺ said, "Except the Idhkhir."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ لاَ هِجْرَةَ وَلَكِنْ جِهَادٌ وَنِيَّةٌ وَإِذَا اسْتُنْفِرْتُمْ فَانْفِرُوا وَقَالَ يَوْمَ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ إِنَّ هَذَا الْبَلَدَ حَرَّمَهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ فَهْوَ حَرَامٌ بِحُرْمَةِ اللَّهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ وَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَحِلَّ الْقِتَالُ فِيهِ لأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَلَمْ يَحِلَّ لِي إِلاَّ سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ فَهْوَ حَرَامٌ بِحُرْمَةِ اللَّهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ لاَ يُعْضَدُ شَوْكُهُ وَلاَ يُنَفَّرُ صَيْدُهُ وَلاَ يَلْتَقِطُ لُقَطَتَهُ إِلاَّ مَنْ عَرَّفَهَا وَلاَ يُخْتَلَى خَلاَهُ فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ فَإِنَّهُ لِقَيْنِهِمْ وَلِبُيُوتِهِمْ قَالَ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up on the day of the Conquest of Mecca and said, "Allah has made Mecca a sanctuary since the day He created the Heavens and the Earth, and it will remain a sanctuary by virtue of the sanctity Allah has bestowed on it till the Day of Resurrection. It (i.e. fighting in it) was not made lawful to anyone before me!, nor will it be made lawful to anyone after me, and it was not made lawful for me except for a short period of time. Its game should not be chased, nor should its trees be cut, nor its vegetation or grass uprooted, not its Luqata (i.e. Most things) picked up except by one who makes a public announcement about it." Al-Abbas bin ʿAbdul Muttalib said, "Except the Idhkhir, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, as it is indispensable for blacksmiths and houses." On that, the Prophet ﷺ kept quiet and then said, "Except the Idhkhir as it is lawful to cut."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَامَ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ حَرَّمَ مَكَّةَ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ فَهْىَ حَرَامٌ بِحَرَامِ اللَّهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ لَمْ تَحِلَّ لأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَلاَ تَحِلُّ لأَحَدٍ بَعْدِي وَلَمْ تَحْلِلْ لِي إِلاَّ سَاعَةً مِنَ الدَّهْرِ لاَ يُنَفَّرُ صَيْدُهَا وَلاَ يُعْضَدُ شَوْكُهَا وَلاَ يُخْتَلَى خَلاَهَا وَلاَ تَحِلُّ لُقَطَتُهَا إِلاَّ لِمُنْشِدٍ فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّهُ لاَ بُدَّ مِنْهُ لِلْقَيْنِ وَالْبُيُوتِ فَسَكَتَ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ فَإِنَّهُ حَلاَلٌ وَعَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الْكَرِيمِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ بِمِثْلِ هَذَا أَوْ نَحْوِ هَذَا رَوَاهُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ  

There is no Hijra (emigration) but only Jihad and good intention; and when you are called to battle, then go forth. He also said on the Day of Victory over Mecca: Allah made this town sacred on the day He created the earth and the heavens; so it is -sacred by the sacred- ness conferred on it by Allah until the Day of Resurrection and fighting in it was not lawful to anyone before me, and it was made lawful for me only during an hour on one day, for it is sacred by the sacredness conferred on it by Allah until the Day of Resurrection. Its thorns are not to be cut, its game is not to be molested, and the things dropped are to be picked up only by one who makes a public announcement of it, and its fresh herbage is not to be cut. Abbas (Allah be pleased with him) said: Messenger of Allah, exception may be made in case of rush, for it is useful for their blacksmiths and for their houses. He (the Holy Prophet) conceding the suggestion of 'Abbas) said: Except rush.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ لاَ هِجْرَةَ وَلَكِنْ جِهَادٌ وَنِيَّةٌ وَإِذَا اسْتُنْفِرْتُمْ فَانْفِرُوا وَقَالَ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ إِنَّ هَذَا الْبَلَدَ حَرَّمَهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ فَهُوَ حَرَامٌ بِحُرْمَةِ اللَّهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ وَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَحِلَّ الْقِتَالُ فِيهِ لأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَلَمْ يَحِلَّ لِي إِلاَّ سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ فَهُوَ حَرَامٌ بِحُرْمَةِ اللَّهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ لاَ يُعْضَدُ شَوْكُهُ وَلاَ يُنَفَّرُ صَيْدُهُ وَلاَ يَلْتَقِطُ إِلاَّ مَنْ عَرَّفَهَا وَلاَ يُخْتَلَى خَلاَهَا فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ فَإِنَّهُ لِقَيْنِهِمْ وَلِبُيُوتِهِمْ فَقَالَ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ  

"This Makkah was made sacred by Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, the day He created the heavens and the Earth. Fighting therein was not permitted for any one before me or after me rather it was permitted for me for a short part of a day. At this moment it is a sanctuary that is sacred by the decree of Allah until the Day of Resurrection. Its green grass is not to be uprooted or cut, its trees are not to be cut and its game is not to be distributed. IT is not permissible to pick up its lost property except by one who will announce it publicly." Al-Abbas who was a man of experience, stood up and said: "Except Idkhair, for we use it for our raves and houses." He said: "Except Idhkhir."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ هَذِهِ مَكَّةُ حَرَّمَهَا اللَّهُ ﷻ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ لَمْ تَحِلَّ لأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَلاَ لأَحَدٍ بَعْدِي وَإِنَّمَا أُحِلَّتْ لِي سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ وَهِيَ سَاعَتِي هَذِهِ حَرَامٌ بِحَرَامِ اللَّهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ لاَ يُخْتَلَى خَلاَهَا وَلاَ يُعْضَدُ شَجَرُهَا وَلاَ يُنَفَّرُ صَيْدُهَا وَلاَ تَحِلُّ لُقَطَتُهَا إِلاَّ لِمُنْشِدٍ فَقَامَ الْعَبَّاسُ وَكَانَ رَجُلاً مُجَرِّبًا فَقَالَ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ فَإِنَّهُ لِبُيُوتِنَا وَقُبُورِنَا فَقَالَ إِلاَّ الإِذْخِرَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said on the day of the conquest of Mecca, "Indeed, this city is sacred. Allah has forbidden violence within it before my arrival, and for me, it is permissible for a brief period. It remains forbidden by Allah's prohibition until the Day of Judgment. Its game cannot be driven away, its thorns cannot be removed, and its prey cannot be caught except by the one who identifies it. No one should be expelled from it. Abbas said, 'O Messenger of Allah, except for the wild donkey, for it belongs to their houses and they look after it.' The Prophet replied, 'Except for the wild donkey. There is no migration, only jihad and intention. So when you are called, respond.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ إِنَّ هَذَا الْبَلَدَ حَرَامٌ حَرَّمَهُ اللهُ لَمْ يَحِلَّ فِيهِ الْقَتْلُ لِأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَأُحِلَّ لِي سَاعَةً فَهُوَ حَرَامٌ بِحُرْمَةِ اللهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ لَا يُنَفَّرُ صَيْدُهُ وَلا يُعْضَدُ شَوْكُهُوَلا تُلْتَقَطُ لُقَطَتُهُ إِلا مَنْ عَرَّفَهَا وَلا يُخْتَلَى خَلاهُ فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِلا الْإِذْخِرَ فَإِنَّهُ لِبُيُوتِهِمْ وَلِقَيْنِهِمْ فَقَالَ إِلا الْإِذْخِرَ وَلا هِجْرَةَ وَلَكِنْ جِهَادٌ وَنِيَّةٌ وَإِذَا اسْتُنْفِرْتُمْ فَانْفِرُوا  

[Machine] "The Prophet of Allah ﷺ said on the day of Mecca's conquest, 'Indeed, Allah, may His remembrance be glorified, made Mecca sacred on the day He created the heavens and the earth. It is sacred by the sanctity of Allah until the Day of Judgment. Its game should not be disturbed, its trees should not be cut, its grass should not be uprooted, and its prey should not be chased except by a skilled poet.' So Al-Abbas ibn Abd al-Muttalib said, 'Except for the incense, O Messenger of Allah, the needs of the people and homes require it.' The Prophet ﷺ remained silent for a while and then said, 'Except for incense, for it is permissible.'"  

أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ «إِنَّ اللهَ جَلَّ ذِكْرُهُ حَرَّمَ مَكَّةَ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ فَهِيَ حَرَامٌ بِحَرَامِ اللهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ لَا يُنَفَّرُ صَيْدُهَا وَلَا يُعْضَدُ شَجَرُهَا وَلَا يُخْتَلَى خَلَاهَا وَلَا يَحِلُّ لُقَطَتُهَا إِلَّا لِمُنْشِدٍ» فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ إِلَّا الْإِذْخِرَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّهُ لَا بُدَّ لِلْقَيْنِ وَالْبُيُوتِ فَسَكَتَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سَاعَةً فَقَالَ «إِلَّا الْإِذْخِرَ إِنَّهُ حَلَالٌ»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the day of the conquest of Mecca, "Verily, this city is sacred. Allah has made it forbidden [to fight] and it was not permissible to kill anyone in it before me. However, it has been made permissible for me for only a short time. It is sacred as Allah has forbidden it until the Day of Resurrection. Its game is not to be scared away, its thorns are not to be cut, and its fallen things are not to be picked up except by the one who recognizes them. Its trees are not to be damaged except the Izdir tree, as it belongs to their homes." Then Al-Abbas said, "Except the Izdhar tree, as it belongs to their homes."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ إِنَّ هَذَا الْبَلَدَ حَرَامٌ حَرَّمَهُ اللهُ لَمْ يَحِلَّ فِيهِ الْقَتْلُ لِأَحَدٍ قَبْلِي وَإِنَّهَا أُحِلَّتْ لِي سَاعَةً فَهُوَ حَرَامٌ حَرَّمَهُ اللهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ لَا يُنَفَّرُ صَيْدُهُ وَلَا يُعْضَدُ شَوْكُهُ وَلَا يَلْتَقِطُ لُقَطَتَهُ إِلَّا مَنْ عَرَّفَهَا وَلَا يُخْتَلَى خَلَاهُ فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ إِلَّا الْإِذْخِرَ؛ فَإِنَّهُ لِبُيُوتِهِمْ فَقَالَ إِلَّا الْإِذْخِرَ

On that, the Prophet ﷺ kept quiet and then said, "Except the Idhkhir as it is lawful to cut." (Using translation from Bukhārī 4313)   

"إِنَّ الله حَرَّمَ مَكَّة يَوْمَ خلقَ السَّمَوَاتِ والأَرْضَ، فهِيَ حرَامٌ بحُرْمَةِ الله إِلى يَوْم الْقِيَامَة، لمْ تَحِلَّ لأحَدٍ قبْلي، ولا تَحلُّ لأَحدٍ بَعْدِى، ولمْ تَحِلَّ لي قطُّ إلا ساعةً مِنَ الدَّهْرِ، لا يُنَفَّرُ صَيدُها، وَلَا يُعْضدُ شوْكُها، وَلَا يُختَلى خَلَاهَا، وَلَا تَحلُّ لُقطتُها إلا لِمُنْشِد، فقال العبَّاسُ: إلا الإِذخِرَ يا رسولَ الله؛ فإِنَّهُ لا بُدَّ مِنْهُ لِلقَينِ والبيوتِ؟ قال: إلا الإِذخِرَ، فإِنَّهُ حَلَالٌ".  

"عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ : هَذِهِ حَرَامٌ -يَعْنِى مَكَّةَ- حَرَّمَهَا الله يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَوَاتِ وَالأرْضَ، وَوَضَعَ هَذَيْنِ الأخْشَبَيْنِ، لَمْ تَحِلَّ لأَحَدٍ قَبْلِى، وَلَا تَحِلَّ لأحَدٍ بَعْدِى، وَلَمْ تَحِلَّ لِى إِلَّا سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ، لَا يُعْضَدُ شَوْكُهَا، وَلَا يُنْفَّرُ

صَيْدُهَا، وَلَا يُخْتَلَى خَلَاهَا، وَلَا تُرْفَعُ لُقَطَتُهَا إِلَّا لِمُنْشِدٍ، فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ: يَا رَسُولَ الله، إِنَّ أَهْلَ مَكَّةَ لَا صَبْرَ لَهُمْ عَنِ الإِذْخِرِ لِقَيْنِهِمْ وَأَبْيَاتِهِمْ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ : إِلَّا الإِذْخَر".  

"لا هِجْرَةَ وَلَكِنْ جِهَادٌ وَنِيَّة، وإذا اسْتُنْفِرْتُم فَانْفِرُوا، فَإِنَّ هذا بلد حرَّمه اللهُ يومَ خَلَق السمواتِ والأَرْضَ، وهو حرامٌ بحرمةِ الله إلَى يومِ القِيَامةِ، وَإِنَّه لا يَحِلُّ القتَالُ فيه لأَحدٍ قَبْلي، ولَمْ يحلَّ لي إلا سَاعةً من نَهَار، فهو حرامٌ بحرمةِ اللهِ إلى يوم القِيَامَةِ، لا يُعْضَد شَوْكُه ولا يُنَفَّر صيدُه، ولا تُلْتقط لُقَطَتُه إِلا من عَرَّفَهَا، ولا يُختَلى خَلَاها. قال العَبَّاسُ: يا رسولَ الله: إلا الإذخر فإنَّه لِقَينهم وبُيُوتِهم، قال: إلا الإذْخر".
