Sunan Abi Dawud 2010 (Book 11, Hadith 290) #22302
The Oath of Disbelief at Al Muhassab

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) asked Usamah bin Zaid about where they would camp the next day, and he replied that they would camp in the valley of Banu Kinanah, where the Quraish had taken an oath against Banu Hashim.

Usamah bin Zaid said I asked Apostle of Allaah where will you encamp tomorrow? (This is asked on the occasion of his Hajj). He replied "Did 'Aqil leave any house for us?" He again said "We shall encamp in the valley (Khaif) of Banu Kinanah where the Quraish took an oath upon disbelief, that is, Al Muhassab". The oath was that Banu Kinanah concluded a pact with the Quraish against Banu Hashim "they would have no marital relationship with them, nor would give them accommodation nor would have any commercial ties with them". Al Zuhri said Al Khaif means valley.
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيْنَ تَنْزِلُ غَدًا فِي حَجَّتِهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ هَلْ تَرَكَ لَنَا عَقِيلٌ مَنْزِلاً ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ نَحْنُ نَازِلُونَ بِخَيْفِ بَنِي كِنَانَةَ حَيْثُ قَاسَمَتْ قُرَيْشٌ عَلَى الْكُفْرِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ يَعْنِي الْمُحَصَّبَ وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ بَنِي كِنَانَةَ حَالَفَتْ قُرَيْشًا عَلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ أَنْ لاَ يُنَاكِحُوهُمْ وَلاَ يُبَايِعُوهُمْ وَلاَ يُئْوُوهُمْ ‏.‏ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ وَالْخَيْفُ الْوَادِي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a conversation between Prophet Muhammad and Usamah bin Zaid. The Prophet asked Usamah where they would encamp for the night and he replied that they would be camping in a valley called Al Muhassab. This valley was significant because it was here that the Quraish took an oath against another tribe called Banu Hashim. This oath meant that no one from either tribe could marry each other or have any commercial ties with each other. This hadith teaches us to be respectful towards all people regardless of their background or beliefs as this is what Allah expects from us as Muslims. We should also strive to maintain peace between different tribes and communities so we can live together harmoniously without any animosity or hatred towards one another.
