\nNarrated Ibn `Abbas:\n \n\n`Ukaz, Majanna and Dhul-Majaz were markets in the Pre-Islamic period. When the people embraced \nIslam they considered it a sin to trade there. So, the following Holy Verse came:-- 'There is no harm \nfor you if you seek of the bounty of your Lord (Allah) in the Hajj season." (2.198) Ibn `Abbas recited \nit like this.\n

\nحَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ كَانَتْ عُكَاظٌ وَمَجَنَّةُ وَذُو الْمَجَازِ أَسْوَاقًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ الإِسْلاَمُ تَأَثَّمُوا مِنَ التِّجَارَةِ فِيهَا، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ‏{‏لَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ‏}‏ فِي مَوَاسِمِ الْحَجِّ، قَرَأَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ كَذَا‏.‏
