Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah

Narrated 'Asim bin Sulaiman (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

I asked Anas bin Malik about Safa and Marwa. Anas replied, "We used to
consider (i.e. going around) them a custom of the Pre-islamic period of
Ignorance, so when Islam came, we gave up going around them. Then Allah
revealed" "Verily, Safa and Marwa (i.e. two mountains at Makkah) are among
the Symbols of Allah. So it is not harmful of those who perform the Hajj of
the House (of Allah) or perform the 'Umra to ambulate (Tawaf) between
them." (2.158)
