az-Zuhrī, from Ḥumayd ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, from Abū Hurayra:
that Abū Bakr sent him during the pilgrimage for which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had appointed him, one year before the Farewell Pilgrimage, on the Day of Sacrifice, together with a group who proclaimed among the people: “After this year no idolater may perform the pilgrimage, and no one is ever again to circumambulate the House while naked.”
It was recorded by al-Bukhārī (1) through the transmission of az-Zahrānī.
