3914. It was narrated that Mālik was asked about the saying: "There is no Ṣafar." He said: "The people of the Jāhiliyyah would make Ṣafar permissible (for war); they would regard it as permissible one year and regard it as sacred (forbidding war) another year. So the Prophet ﷺ said: 'No Ṣafar.'"[2] (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

3914 - قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: قُرِئَ عَلَى الْحَارِثِ بْنِ مِسْكِيْنٍ وَأَنَا شَاهِدٌ أَخْبَرَكُمْ أَشْهَبُ قَالَ: سُئِلَ مَالِكٌ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ: «لَا صَفَرَ» قَالَ: إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ كَانُوا يُحِلُّونَ صَفَرَ، يُحِلُّونَهُ عَامًا وَيُحَرِّمُونَهُ عَامًا، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «لَا صَفَرَ»
