Sunan Ibn Majah 3109

Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn Numayr narrated to us: Yūnus ibn Bukayr narrated to us: Muḥammad ibn Isḥāq narrated to us: Abān ibn Ṣāliḥ narrated to us, from al-Ḥasan ibn Muslim ibn Yannāq, from Ṣafiyyah bint Shaybah, who said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) address the people in the year of the Conquest. He said, “People, God made Makkah sacred on the day He created the heavens and the earth, and it remains sacred until the Day of Resurrection. Its trees are not to be cut, its game is not to be frightened away, and its lost property is not to be taken except by someone who will announce it publicly.” al-ʿAbbās said, “Except for idhkhir grass, for it is used for houses and graves.” The Messenger of God (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Except idhkhir.”
