he said there is no desire to conquer mecca and if it were not for that the people of yemen and others would have raided it. there is no winter or summer resort there because they cool off in taif and warm themselves in jeddah. juatha is a spring in bahrain. there is nothing in mecca that comes close to that.
قال ليس في الغلبة على مكة رغبة، ولولا ذلك لغزاها أهل اليمن وغيرهم. وليس بها مشتى ولا متصيف؛ لأنهم يتبردون بالطائف ويتدفون بجدة. وجؤاثا عين بالبحرين. وليس بمكة شيء يدانى ذلك.
