Cevap
Imām Ibn al-Jawzī (d. 597/1201) summarized the scholars' opinions in his book "Zād al-Masīr" as follows:
- It refers to those who refrained from hunting. [Ibn ʿAbbās]
- It refers to those who avoided sins during their Hajj. [Qatādah] Ibn Masʿūd states: "Allah's forgiveness is only for those who feared Him during their Hajj."
- It refers to those who maintain piety for the remainder of their lives. [Abū al-ʿĀliyah, Ibrāhīm]
