Sunan Abi Dawud 1987 (Book 11, Hadith 267) #22279
Discontinuing Pre-Islamic Practices

SUMMARY: The hadith explains that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) did not make Aisha perform umrah during Dhul-Hijjah to discontinue the practice of the idolaters in Arabia before Islam.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: By Allah, the Messenger of Allah did not make Aisha perform umrah during Dhul-Hijjah but to discontinue the practice of the idolaters (in Arabia before Islam), for this clan of Quraysh and those who followed them used to say: When the fur of the camel abounds, and the wounds on the back of the camels are recovered and the month of Safar begins, umrah becomes lawful for one who performs umrah. They considered performing umrah unlawful till the months of Dhul-Hijjah and al-Muharram passed away.
حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَعْمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ عَائِشَةَ فِي ذِي الْحِجَّةِ إِلاَّ لِيَقْطَعَ بِذَلِكَ أَمْرَ أَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ فَإِنَّ هَذَا الْحَىَّ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ وَمَنْ دَانَ دِينَهُمْ كَانُوا يَقُولُونَ إِذَا عَفَا الْوَبَرْ وَبَرَأَ الدَّبَرْ وَدَخَلَ صَفَرْ فَقَدْ حَلَّتِ الْعُمْرَةُ لِمَنِ اعْتَمَرْ ‏.‏ فَكَانُوا يُحَرِّمُونَ الْعُمْرَةَ حَتَّى يَنْسَلِخَ ذُو الْحِجَّةِ وَالْمُحَرَّمُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains how Prophet Muhammad ﷺ discontinued a pre-Islamic practice of performing Umrah during Dhul Hijjah. This was done to prevent people from following the practices of idolaters in Arabia before Islam, who believed that Umrah was only lawful after certain conditions were met. By doing this, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ showed us how important it is to stay away from practices that are not in line with Islamic teachings and values. He also taught us to be mindful of our actions and words, as they can have a great impact on our lives and those around us.
