[Machine] Abu Bakr sent me in that Hajj as a mu'adhin (caller to prayer) on the Day of Sacrifice in Mina. We were calling out the adhan announcing that it is not permissible for a mushrik (polytheist) to perform Hajj after that year, nor for anyone to perform Tawaf around the Kaaba naked. Abu Abdullah said: "This hadith of Az-Zuhri has a good chain of transmission and Abu Bakr's Hajj was in the month of Dhul-Hijjah, as Az-Zuhri mentioned." Abu Abdullah said: "Surah At-Tawbah (Chapter 9) was revealed before Abu Bakr's Hajj, in which it is mentioned: 'Verily, the number of months with Allah is twelve.' (Quran 9:36) And also: 'Verily the Mushrikun are impure.' (Quran 9:37) So was it permissible for Abu Bakr to perform Hajj following the tradition of the Arabs, while Allah informed them that such a act is considered disbelief?"  

بَعَثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ فِي تِلْكَ الْحَجَّةِ فِي مُؤَذِّنِينَ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ نُؤَذِّنُ بِمِنًى أَنْ لَا يَحُجَّ بَعْدَ الْعَامِ مُشْرِكٌ وَلَا يَطُوفَ بِالْبَيْتِ عُرْيَانٌ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ حَدِيثُ الزُّهْرِيِّ إِسْنَادُهُ إِسْنَادٌ جَيِّدٌ وَإِنَّمَا كَانَتْ حَجَّةُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ فِي ذِي الْحِجَّةِ عَلَى مَا ذَكَرَ الزُّهْرِيُّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ قَدْ نَزَلَتْ سُورَةُ بَرَاءَةَ قَبْلَ حَجَّةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ وَفِيهَا {إِنَّمَا النَّسِيءُ زِيَادَةٌ فِي الْكُفْرِ} [التوبة 37] وَفِيهَا {إنَّ عِدَّةَ الشُّهُورِ عِنْدَ اللهِ اثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا} [التوبة 36] فَهَلْ كَانَ يَجُوزُ أَنْ يَحُجَّ أَبُو بَكْرٍ عَلَى حَجِّ الْعَرَبِ وَقَدْ أَخْبَرَ اللهُ أَنَّ فِعْلَهُمْ ذَلِكَ كَانَ كُفْرًا؟
