«قال أبو شريح العدوي لعمرو بن سعيد: قام رسول الله الغد من يوم الفتح فحمد الله وأثنى عليه ثم قال: إن مكة حرمها الله ولم يحرمها الناس، فلا يحل لامرئ يؤمن بالله واليوم الآخر أن يسفك بها دماً ولا يعضد بها شجرة، وإنما أذن لي فيها ساعة من نهار وقد عادت حرمتها اليوم كحرمتها بالأمس»

The Conquest of Mecca (Fath Makka)

In Ramadan 8 AH (January 630 CE), following Banu Bakr and Quraysh's breach of the Hudaybiyya peace at al-Watir, the Prophet mobilized 10,000 Muslims and entered Mecca in triumphant humility; dividing the army into four columns, the city was taken almost without resistance; the 360 idols around the Kaaba were shattered, and the Prophet announced a general amnesty to the populace: 'Go, for you are free'. وخطب يوم الفتح فأعلن حرمة البلد إلى يوم القيامة «لم يحل القتال فيه لأحد قبلي ولم يحل لي إلا ساعة من نهار» واستثنى الإذخر لقينهم وبيوتهم.
