It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon to us on the tenth of Dhul-Hijjah and said: Which day is the most sacred? The companions said: Today, that is, the tenth of Dhul-Hijjah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Which month is the most sacred? The companions said: This month of Dhul-Hijjah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Which city is the most sacred? They said: Our city, that is, Makkah Mukarramah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Your blood and wealth are forbidden to one another just as the sanctity of this city, this month, and this day is sacred. Have I conveyed the message of Allah Almighty to you? The companions said: Yes. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Allah! Bear witness.
