[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , performed tawaf (circumambulation) around Safa and Marwa on his camel, and that this is a sunnah (recommendation). I asked, "What is your saying that they both told the truth and lied?" He replied, "They both told the truth, as he performed tawaf on his camel, and they lied, as it is not a sunnah, for indeed people would not be kept away from him nor would they be diverted from him, so he performed tawaf on his camel in order for them to hear his words and see his place, and so that their hands may touch him."  

البيهقي:٩٣٧٩وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ثنا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَاصِمٍ الْغَنَوِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَزْعُمُ قَوْمُكَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ طَافَ بِالصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ وَأنَّ ذَلِكَ سُنَّةٌ قَالَ صَدَقُوا وَكَذَبُوا قُلْتُ مَا قَوْلُكَ صَدَقُوا وَكَذَبُوا؟ قَالَ صَدَقُوا قَدْ طَافَ عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ وَكَذَبُوا لَيْسَ بِسُنَّةٍ إنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ لَا يُدْفَعُ عَنْهُ النَّاسُ وَلَا يُصْرَفُونَ فَطَافَ عَلَى بَعِيرِهِ؛ لِيَسْمَعُوا كَلَامَهُ وَيَرَوْا مَكَانَهُ وَلَا تَنَالَهُ أَيْدِيهِمْ

كَذَاقَالَ رَوْحٌ عَاصِمٌ وَالنَّاسُ يَقُولُونَ أَبُو عَاصِمٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَزْعُمُ قَوْمُكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ طَافَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ وَأَنَّ ذَلِكَ سُنَّةٌ؟ فَقَالَ صَدَقُوا وَكَذَبُوا قُلْتُ وَمَا صَدَقُوا وَكَذَبُوا؟ قَالَ قَدْ طَافَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ وَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِسُنَّةٍ كَانَ النَّاسُ لَا يُصْرَفُونَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَلا يُدْفَعُونَ فَطَافَ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ لِيَسْتَمِعُوا وَلِيَرَوْا مَكَانَهُ وَلا تَنَالُهُ أَيْدِيهِمْ
