Sa'i between As-Safa and Al-Marwa

باب مَا جَاءَ فِي السَّعْىِ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ

And Ibn ‘Umar رضي الله عنهما said that Sa‘y (is to be observed) from the house of Bani ‘Abbad to the lane of Bani Abu Hussain.
وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا السَّعْيُ مِنْ دَارِ بَنِي عَبَّادٍ إِلَى زُقَاقِ بَنِي أَبِي حُسَيْنِ.
Sahih al-Bukhari 1648
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَاصِمٌ، قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَكُنْتُمْ تَكْرَهُونَ السَّعْىَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ قَالَ نَعَمْ‏.‏ لأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ مِنْ شَعَائِرِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، حَتَّى أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ‏{‏إِنَّ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةَ مِنْ شَعَائِرِ اللَّهِ فَمَنْ حَجَّ الْبَيْتَ أَوِ اعْتَمَرَ فَلاَ جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَطَّوَّفَ بِهِمَا‏}‏‏.‏
`Asim:

I asked Anas bin Malik: "Did you use to dislike to perform Tawaf between Safa and Marwa?" He said, "Yes, as it was of the ceremonies of the days of the Pre-Islamic period of ignorance, till Allah revealed: 'Verily! (The two mountains) As-Safa and Al-Marwa are among the symbols of Allah. It is therefore no sin for him who performs the pilgrimage to the Ka`ba, or performs `Umra, to perform Tawaf between them.' " (2.158)
