كتاب الحج

 

Chapter 37: It is recommended to enter Makkah from the Upper Mountain Pass and to leave from the Lower Mountain Pass; Entering a city via a route different than the one by which you leave it

باب اسْتِحْبَابِ دُخُولِ مَكَّةَ مِنَ الثَّنِيَّةِ الْعُلْيَا وَالْخُرُوجِ مِنْهَا مِنَ الثَّنِيَّةِ السُّفْلَى وَدُخُولِ بَلْدَةٍ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ غَيْرِ الَّتِي خَرَجَ مِنْهَا

Sahih Muslim 1257 a

Ibn 'Umar reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to come out (of Medina) by way of al-Shajarah and entered it by the way of al-Mu'arras and whenever he entered Mecca, he entered it from the upper side and went out of it from the lower side.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ الشَّجَرَةِ وَيَدْخُلُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ الْمُعَرَّسِ وَإِذَا دَخَلَ مَكَّةَ دَخَلَ مِنَ الثَّنِيَّةِ الْعُلْيَا وَيَخْرُجُ مِنَ الثَّنِيَّةِ السُّفْلَى ‏.‏
