Volume 3, Book 27, Number 30:
Narrated Abu Ishaq:
I heard Al-Bara’ saying, “The above Verse was revealed regarding us, for the Ansar on returning
from Hajj never entered their houses through the proper doors but from behind. One of the Ansar
came and entered through the door and he was taunted for it. Therefore, the following was revealed:
—
“It is not righteousness That you enter the houses from the back, But the righteous man is He who
fears Allah, Obeys His order and keeps away from What He has forbidden So, enter houses through
the proper doors.” (2.189)
