[The first version]
1430 - Abu 'Abd Allah, nephew of Ibn Wahb, narrated to us, my uncle—meaning 'Abd Allah ibn Wahb—narrated to us, Yunus informed me, from al-Zuhri, from 'Urwah, that 'Aisha informed him that the Ansar, before they embraced Islam, they and Ghassan, used to perform the Hlal (ritual invocation) for Manat, so they felt it was wrong to perform Tawaf between al-Safa and al-Marwah.

They asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, about that when they embraced Islam, so Allah the Mighty and Majestic revealed concerning that: "Indeed, as-Safa and al-Marwah are among the symbols of Allah."

She said: It is not as you have said, O son of my sister. If it were as you interpreted it, it would have been: "There is no blame on him for not performing Tawaf."

Whoever performed the Hlal for her felt it was wrong to perform Tawaf between al-Safa and al-Marwah. When they embraced Islam, they asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, about that, so Allah the Mighty and Majestic revealed: "Indeed, as-Safa and al-Marwah are among the symbols of Allah" to the end of the verse. She said:
