English narration
Narrated by عبد الله بن العباس القرشي
'Ukaz, Mijanna and Dhul-Majaz were markets during the Pre-islamic Period. They (i.e. Muslims) considered it a sin to trade there during the Hajj time (i.e. season), so this Verse was revealed-- "There is no harm for you if you seek of the Bounty of your Lord during the Hajj season." (2.198)

حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدٌ , قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ , عَنْ عَمْرٍو , عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا , قَالَ : "
كَانَتْ عُكَاظُ , وَمَجَنَّةُ , وَذُو الْمَجَازِ أَسْوَاقًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ، فَتَأَثَّمُوا أَنْ يَتَّجِرُوا فِي الْمَوَاسِمِ ، فَنَزَلَتْ لَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ تَبْتَغُوا فَضْلا مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ سورة البقرة آية 198 فِي مَوَاسِمِ الْحَجِّ
