\nNarrated Sa`id bin Abu Sa`id Al-Maqburi:\n \n\nAbu Shuraih, Al-`Adawi said that he had said to `Amr bin Sa`id when he was sending the troops to \nMecca (to fight `Abdullah bin Az-Zubair), "O Chief! Allow me to tell you what Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said \non the day following the Conquest of Mecca. My ears heard that and my heart understood it \nthoroughly and I saw with my own eyes the Prophet (ﷺ) when he, after Glorifying and Praising Allah, \nstarted saying, 'Allah, not the people, made Mecca a sanctuary, so anybody who has belief in Allah \nand the Last Day should neither shed blood in it, nor should he cut down its trees. If anybody tells \n(argues) that fighting in it is permissible on the basis that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did fight in Mecca, say to \nhim, 'Allah allowed His Apostle and did not allow you.' "Allah allowed me only for a few hours on \nthat day (of the conquest) and today its sanctity is valid as it was before. So, those who are present \nshould inform those who are absent (concerning this fact." Abu Shuraih was asked, "What did `Amr \nreply?" He said, (`Amr said) 'O Abu Shuraih! I know better than you in this respect Mecca does not \ngive protection to a sinner, a murderer or a thief."\n
