It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said during the Farewell Pilgrimage: O people, what day is this? The people replied, A sacred day. He asked, What city is this? The people replied, A sacred city. He asked, What month is this? The people replied, A sacred month. He said: Indeed, your wealth, your blood, and your honor are sacred among you, just as the sanctity of this day, in this city, in this month. Then he repeated this statement several times. Then he raised his head towards the sky and said: O Allah, have I conveyed (the message)? He repeated this statement several times. Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) says that this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was his supplication to his Lord. After this, he said: Let the one who is present convey this message to the one who is absent. Do not turn back to disbelief after me, striking the necks of one another.
