It is narrated from Sayyiduna Aslam that he heard Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) say: "What need is there now for ramal (walking briskly in tawaf) and uncovering the shoulders, when Allah has made Islam firmly established and has driven away disbelief and the disbelievers?

The chain of this hadith is sahih (authentic), but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it, because they did not use Sa'id bin Zayd, the brother of Hammad bin Zayd, as evidence.
