They ask you, ˹O Muhammad˺, about the new moons. Say, "They are measurements of time for the people and for Hajj." And it is not righteousness to enter houses from the back, but righteousness is ˹in˺ one who fears Allah. And enter houses from their doors. And fear Allah that you may succeed.  

يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْأَهِلَّةِ ۖ قُلْ هِيَ مَوَاقِيتُ لِلنَّاسِ وَالْحَجِّ ۗ وَلَيْسَ الْبِرُّ بِأَنْ تَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا وَلَٰكِنَّ الْبِرَّ مَنِ اتَّقَىٰ ۗ وَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ أَبْوَابِهَا ۚ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ  

[Machine] "They used to enter the Kaaba from its back during the time of ignorance. Then Allah revealed, 'It is not righteousness that you enter the houses from the back, but righteousness is [in] one who fears [Allah]'"  

«كَانُوا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ إِذَا أَحْرَمُوا أَتَوْا الْبَيْتَ مِنْ ظَهْرِهِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ {وَلَيْسَ الْبِرُّ بِأَنْ تَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا وَلَكِنَّ الْبِرَّ مَنِ اتَّقَى} »  

[Machine] About Bara'a, the Ansar used to enter the masjid not through its main gate but through its backdoor. Allah revealed the verse "It is not righteousness that you enter houses from the back" (Surah Al-Baqarah, 189).  

عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ كَانَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ إِذَا حَجَّتْ لَمْ تَدْخُلْ مِنْ أَبْوَابِهَا وَدَخَلَتْ مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى {وَلَيْسَ الْبِرُّ بِأَنْ تَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا} [البقرة 189]  

In the Pre-lslamic Period when the people assumed Ihram, they would enter their houses from the back. So Allah revealed:-- "And it is not righteousness that you enter houses from the back, but the righteous man is he who fears Allah, obeys His Orders and keeps away from what He has forbidden. So enter houses through their doors." (2.189) (Using translation from Bukhārī 4512)   

فِي قَوْلِهِ {§وَلَيْسَ الْبِرُّ بِأَنْ تَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا} [البقرة 189] قَالَ كَانَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ إِذَا أَحْرَمُوا لَمْ يَدْخُلُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ أَبْوَابِهَا وَدَخَلُوهَا مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا مِنَ الْحِيطَانِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُهُ {وَلَيْسَ الْبِرُّ بِأَنْ تَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا وَلَكِنَّ الْبِرَّ مِنَ اتَّقَى وَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ أَبْوَابِهَا} [البقرة 189]  

[Machine] When the Ansar would go on Hajj, they would not enter their homes through their front doors, but would rather enter from the back of their houses. Allah revealed the following verse: "It is not righteousness that you enter houses from the back, but righteousness is [in] one who fears Allah." [Surah Al-Baqarah 2:189]  

كَانَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ إِذَا حَجَّتْ لَمْ تَدْخُلْ مِنْ أَبْوَابِهَا وَدَخَلَتْ مِنْ ظُهُورِ بُيُوتِهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ {وَلَيْسَ الْبِرُّ بِأَنْ تَأْتُوا الْبُيُوتَ مِنْ ظُهُورِهَا} [البقرة 189]
