2008. Āishah narrated: "The only reason that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ camped at Al-Muḥaṣṣab was to facilitate the exit (from Makkah), and it is not a Sunnah. So whoever wishes to do so may camp there, and who so wishes to may leave it." (Sahih)
2008 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: «إِنَّمَا نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمُحَصَّبَ لِيَكُونَ أَسْمَحَ لِخُرُوجِهِ، وَلَيْسَ بِسُنَّةٍ فَمَنْ شَاءَ نَزَلَهُ، وَمَنْ شَاءَ لَمْ يَنْزِلْهُ»

Since the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, dismounted here and so did his Rightly-Guided Khalifah, it is, no doubt, recommended to stop over here. Āishah and Ibn Ābbās considered it a common stopping-place.
