[Machine] Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz and Abu Abdullah Al-Susi informed us, they said: Abu Abbas Muhammad ibn Ya'qub informed me that Abbas ibn Walid ibn Mazid told me, he said: My father informed me, he said: Al-Awza'i told me, he said: Yahya ibn Abi Kathir narrated to me, he said: Abu Salama ibn Abdur Rahman narrated to me, he said: Abu Huraira mentioned the hadith about the sanctity of Mecca and the saying of the Prophet ﷺ, "Its trees are not to be cut, and its thorns are not to be uprooted." Abbas ibn Abdul Muttalib then said, "O Messenger of Allah, except for the ifkhir (a type of thorny bush); for we use it in our houses and graves." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Except for the ifkhir, except for the ifkhir." They mentioned it in Sahihain from the hadith of Al-Awza'i, and Al-Bukhari also narrated it from the hadith of Ibn Abbas and Safiyyah bint Shayba with its meaning.
