(13). 2966. 'Āsim Al-Aḥwal narrated: "I asked Anas bin Mālik about Aṣ-Ṣafā and Al-Marwah, and he said: 'They were among the rites of Jāhiliyyah.' He said: 'So during Islam, we refrained from them, then Allāh, Blessed and Most High, revealed: Indeed Aṣ-Ṣafā and Al-Marwah are of the symbols of Allāh. So it is not a sin for those who perform Hajj or Umrah to the House to go between them.'[1] He said: 'So it is voluntary to do so: And whoever does good voluntarily then verily, Allāh is the All-Recogniser, the All-Knowing.'"[2] (Saḥīh)
