2961. It was narrated from Muḥarrar bin Abî Hurairah that his
father said: "I came with 'Alî bin Abî Tâlib when the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ sent him to the people of Makkah with news of the dissolution of treaty obligations." He said: "How did you announce it?" He said: "We announced that no one would enter Paradise but a believing soul, no one was to circumambulate the House naked; whoever had a treaty with the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, then for its period, or, it extended to four months, and when four months had passed, and that Allâh is free from (all) obligations to the idolators and so is His Messenger. No idolator was to perform Hajj after this year. I kept on announcing it until my voice grew hoarse."
(Hasan)

Commentary
This Hadîth explains the previous Hadîth. On this occasion, the Commander of Hajj was Abû Bakr ﷺ himself, but the responsibility of the declaration of absolution was specifically of 'Alî ﷺ.
