The Sacred Territory of Medina. May God most high protect it - Section 2
وَعَنِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ صَيْدَ وَجٍّ وَعِضَاهَهُ حِرْمٌ مُحَرَّمٌ لِلَّهِ». رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَقَالَ مُحْيِي السُّنَّةِ: «وَجٌّ» ذَكَرُوا أَنَّهَا مِنْ نَاحِيَةِ الطَّائِف وَقَالَ الْخطابِيّ: «إِنَّه» بدل «إِنَّهَا»
Translation
Az-Zubair reported God’s messenger as saying, “The game and large thorn trees of Wajj are sacred being declared a sacred belonging of God." Abu Dawud transmitted it. Muhyi as-Sunna said Wajj was mentioned by some as being in the neighbourhood of at-Ta’if. (There is another sentence here which cannot easily be fitted in with the translation. It says that al-Khattabi used annahu in place of annaha. In the preceding phrase annaha is used with reference to Wajj. The point of the extra sentence is that al-Khattabi used the masculine pronominal suffix in place of the feminine)
