وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Hisham with the same chain of transmitters.

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ، أَخْبَرَ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «أَلَمْ تَرَيْ أَنَّ قَوْمَكِ حِينَ بَنَوْا الْكَعْبَةَ اقْتَصَرُوا عَنْ قَوَاعِدِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ» قَالَتْ: فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَفَلَا تَرُدُّهَا عَلَى قَوَاعِدِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْلَا حِدْثَانُ قَوْمِكِ بِالْكُفْرِ لَفَعَلْتُ»، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ: «لَئِنْ كَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ سَمِعَتْ هَذَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَا أُرَى رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَرَكَ اسْتِلَامَ الرُّكْنَيْنِ اللَّذَيْنِ يَلِيَانِ الْحِجْرَ، إِلَّا أَنَّ الْبَيْتَ لَمْ يُتَمَّمْ عَلَى قَوَاعِدِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ».

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) as having said this: Didn't you see that when your people built the Ka'ba, they reduced (its area with the result that it no longer remains) on the foundations (laid) by Ibrahim. I said: Messenger of Allah, why don't you rebuild it on the foundations (laid by) Ibrahim? Thereupon Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: Had your people not been new converts to Islam, I would have done that. 'Abdullah bin 'Umar (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ) said: If 'A'isha (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا) had heard it from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), I would not have seen Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) abandoning the touching of the two corners situated near al-Hijr, but (for the fact) that it was not completed on the foundations (laid) by Ibrahim.

— A'isha رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا the wife of Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) reported

حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ مَخْرَمَةَ، ح وحَدَّثَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْأَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي مَخْرَمَةُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ نَافِعًا، مَوْلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: لَوْلَا أَنَّ قَوْمَكِ حَدِيثُو عَهْدٍ بِجَاهِلِيَّةٍ - أَوْ قَالَ: بِكُفْرٍ - لَأَنْفَقْتُ كَنْزَ الْكَعْبَةِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، وَلَجَعَلْتُ بَابَهَا بِالْأَرْضِ، وَلَأَدْخَلْتُ فِيهَا مِنَ الْحِجْرِ.

I heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) as saying: If your people, had not been recent converts to Islam, I would have spent the treasure of the Ka'ba in the way of Allah and would have constructed its door just on the level of the ground and would have encompassed in it the space of Hijr.

— A'isha (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا), wife of Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌)

وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا سَلِيمُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مِينَاءَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ، يَقُولُ: حَدَّثَتْنِي خَالَتِي، يَعْنِي عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: يَا عَائِشَةُ، لَوْلَا أَنَّ قَوْمَكِ حَدِيثُو عَهْدٍ بِشِرْكٍ، لَهَدَمْتُ الْكَعْبَةَ، فَأَلْزَقْتُهَا بِالْأَرْضِ، وَجَعَلْتُ لَهَا بَابَيْنِ: بَابًا شَرْقِيًّا، وَبَابًا غَرْبِيًّا، وَزِدْتُ فِيهَا سِتَّةَ أَذْرُعٍ مِنَ الْحِجْرِ، فَإِنَّ قُرَيْشًا اقْتَصَرَتْهَا حَيْثُ بَنَتِ الْكَعْبَةَ.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: 'A'isha رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا , if your people had not been recently polytheists (and new converts to Islam), I would have demolished the Ka'ba, and would have brought it to the level of the ground and would have constructed two doors, one facing the east and the other one to the west, and would have added to it six cubits of area from Hijr, for the Quraish had reduced it when they rebuilt it.

— Abdullah bin Zubair (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ) reported on the authority of his mother's sister ('A'isha رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا ) saying

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، قَالَ: لَمَّا احْتَرَقَ الْبَيْتُ زَمَنَ يَزِيدَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ، حِينَ غَزَاهَا أَهْلُ الشَّامِ، فَكَانَ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ مَا كَانَ، تَرَكَهُ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ حَتَّى قَدِمَ النَّاسُ الْمَوْسِمَ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُجَرِّئَهُمْ - أَوْ يُحَرِّبَهُمْ - عَلَى أَهْلِ الشَّامِ، فَلَمَّا صَدَرَ النَّاسُ، قَالَ: يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، أَشِيرُوا عَلَيَّ فِي الْكَعْبَةِ، أَنْقُضُهَا ثُمَّ أَبْنِي بِنَاءَهَا؟ أَوْ أُصْلِحُ مَا وَهَى مِنْهَا؟ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: فَإِنِّي قَدْ فُرِقَ لِي رَأْيٌ فِيهَا، أَرَى أَنْ تُصْلِحَ مَا وَهَى مِنْهَا، وَتَدَعَ بَيْتًا أَسْلَمَ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ، وَأَحْجَارًا أَسْلَمَ النَّاسُ عَلَيْهَا، وَبُعِثَ عَلَيْهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ: لَوْ كَانَ أَحَدُكُمُ احْتَرَقَ بَيْتُهُ، مَا رَضِيَ حَتَّى يُجِدَّهُ، فَكَيْفَ بَيْتُ رَبِّكُمْ؟ إِنِّي مُسْتَخِيرٌ رَبِّي ثَلَاثًا، ثُمَّ عَازِمٌ عَلَى أَمْرِي، فَلَمَّا مَضَى الثَّلَاثُ أَجْمَعَ رَأْيَهُ عَلَى أَنْ يَنْقُضَهَا، فَتَحَامَاهُ النَّاسُ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ بِأَوَّلِ النَّاسِ يَصْعَدُ فِيهِ أَمْرٌ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ، حَتَّى صَعِدَهُ رَجُلٌ، فَأَلْقَى مِنْهُ حِجَارَةً، فَلَمَّا لَمْ يَرَهُ النَّاسُ أَصَابَهُ شَيْءٌ تَتَابَعُوا فَنَقَضُوهُ حَتَّى بَلَغُوا بِهِ الْأَرْضَ، فَجَعَلَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ أَعْمِدَةً، فَسَتَّرَ عَلَيْهَا السُّتُورَ حَتَّى ارْتَفَعَ بِنَاؤُهُ، وَقَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ تَقُولُ: إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَوْلَا أَنَّ النَّاسَ حَدِيثٌ عَهْدُهُمْ بِكُفْرٍ، وَلَيْسَ عِنْدِي مِنَ النَّفَقَةِ مَا يُقَوِّي عَلَى بِنَائِهِ، لَكُنْتُ أَدْخَلْتُ فِيهِ مِنَ الْحِجْرِ خَمْسَ أَذْرُعٍ، وَلَجَعَلْتُ لَهَا بَابًا يَدْخُلُ النَّاسُ مِنْهُ، وَبَابًا يَخْرُجُونَ مِنْهُ»، قَالَ: «فَأَنَا الْيَوْمَ أَجِدُ مَا أُنْفِقُ، وَلَسْتُ أَخَافُ النَّاسَ»، قَالَ: فَزَادَ فِيهِ خَمْسَ أَذْرُعٍ مِنَ الْحِجْرِ حَتَّى أَبْدَى أُسًّا نَظَرَ النَّاسُ إِلَيْهِ، فَبَنَى عَلَيْهِ الْبِنَاءَ وَكَانَ طُولُ الْكَعْبَةِ ثَمَانِيَ عَشْرَةَ ذِرَاعًا، فَلَمَّا زَادَ فِيهِ اسْتَقْصَرَهُ، فَزَادَ فِي طُولِهِ عَشْرَ أَذْرُعٍ، وَجَعَلَ لَهُ بَابَيْنِ: أَحَدُهُمَا يُدْخَلُ مِنْهُ، وَالْآخَرُ يُخْرَجُ مِنْهُ . فَلَمَّا قُتِلَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ كَتَبَ الْحَجَّاجُ إِلَى عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ يُخْبِرُهُ بِذَلِكَ وَيُخْبِرُهُ أَنَّ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ قَدْ وَضَعَ الْبِنَاءَ عَلَى أُسٍّ نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ الْعُدُولُ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ، فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ: إِنَّا لَسْنَا مِنْ تَلْطِيخِ ابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ فِي شَيْءٍ، أَمَّا مَا زَادَ فِي طُولِهِ فَأَقِرَّهُ، وَأَمَّا مَا زَادَ فِيهِ مِنَ الْحِجْرِ فَرُدَّهُ إِلَى بِنَائِهِ، وَسُدَّ الْبَابَ الَّذِي فَتَحَهُ، فَنَقَضَهُ وَأَعَادَهُ إِلَى بِنَائِهِ.

The House was burnt during the time of Yazid bin Muawiya when the people of Syria had fought (in Mecca). And it happened with it (the Ka'ba) what was (in store for it). Ibn Zubair (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ) felt it (in the same state) until the people came in the season (of Hajj). (The idea behind was) that he wanted to exhort them or incite them (to war) against the people of Syria. When the people had arrived he said to them: O people, advise me about the Ka'ba. Should I demolish it and then build it from its very foundation, or should I repair whatever has been damaged of it? Ibn 'Abbas رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ said: An idea has occurred to me according to which I think that you should only repair (the portion which has been) damaged, and leave the House (in that very state in which) people embraced Islam (and leave those very stones in the same state) when people embraced Islam, and over which Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) had raised it. Thereupon Ibn Zubair رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ said: It the house of any one of you is burnt, he would not be contented until he had reconstructed it, then what about the House of your Lord (which is far more Important than your house)? I would seek good advice from my Lord thrice and then I would make up (my mind) about this affair. After seeking good advice thrice, he made up his mind to demolish it. The people apprehended that calamity might fall from heaven on those persons who would be first to climb (over the building for the purpose of demolishing it), till one (took up courage, and ascended the roof), and threw down one of its stones. When the people saw no calamity befalling him, they followed him, demolished it until it was razed to the ground. Then Ibn Zubair رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ erected pillars and hung cartains on them (in order to provide facilities to the people for observing the time of its construction). And the walls were raised; and Ibn Zubair رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ said: I heard 'A'isha (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا) say that Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) had observed: If the people had Rot recently (abandoned) unbelief, find I had means enough to reconstruct it, which I had not, I would have definitely excompassed in it five cubits of area from Hijr. And I would also have constructed a door for the people to enter, and a door for their exit. I today have (the means to spend) and I entertain no fearfrom the side of people (that they would protest against this change). So he added five cubits of area from the side of Hatim to it that there appeared (the old) foundation (upon which Hadrat Ibrahim had built the Ka'ba). and the people saw that and it was upon this foundation that the wall was raised. The length of the Ka'ba was eighteen cubits. when addition was made to it (which was in its breadth), then naturally the length appears to be) small (as compared with its breadth). Then addition of ten cubits (of area) was made in its length (also). Two doors were also constructed, one of which (was meant) for entrance and the other one for exit. When Ibn Zubair (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ ) was killed, Hajjaj wrote to 'Abdul-Malik (bin Marwan) informing him about it, and telling him that Ibn Zubair (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ) had built (the Ka'ba) on those very foundations (which were laid by Ibrahim) and which reliable persons among the Meccans had seen. 'Abdul-Malik wrote to him: We are not concerned with the censuring of Ibn Zubair رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ in anything. Keep intact the addition made by him in the side of length, and whatever he has added from the side of Hijr revert to (its previous) foundation, and wall up the door which he had opened. Thus Hajjaj at the command of Abdul-Malik) demolished it (that portion) and rebuilt it on (its previous) foundations.

— Ata' reported

حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، وَالْوَلِيدَ بْنَ عَطَاءٍ، يُحَدِّثَانِ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ، قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ: وَفَدَ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَلَى عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ فِي خِلَافَتِهِ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ: مَا أَظُنُّ أَبَا خُبَيْبٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ، سَمِعَ مِنْ عَائِشَةَ مَا كَانَ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ مِنْهَا، قَالَ الْحَارِثُ: بَلَى أَنَا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْهَا، قَالَ: سَمِعْتَهَا تَقُولُ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ: قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ قَوْمَكِ اسْتَقْصَرُوا مِنْ بُنْيَانِ الْبَيْتِ، وَلَوْلَا حَدَاثَةُ عَهْدِهِمْ بِالشِّرْكِ، أَعَدْتُ مَا تَرَكُوا مِنْهُ، فَإِنْ بَدَا لِقَوْمِكِ مِنْ بَعْدِي أَنْ يَبْنُوهُ فَهَلُمِّي لِأُرِيَكِ مَا تَرَكُوا مِنْهُ»، فَأَرَاهَا قَرِيبًا مِنْ سَبْعَةِ أَذْرُعٍ، هَذَا حَدِيثُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ، وَزَادَ عَلَيْهِ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ عَطَاءٍ، قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَلَجَعَلْتُ لَهَا بَابَيْنِ مَوْضُوعَيْنِ فِي الْأَرْضِ شَرْقِيًّا وَغَرْبِيًّا، وَهَلْ تَدْرِينَ لِمَ كَانَ قَوْمُكِ رَفَعُوا بَابَهَا؟»، قَالَتْ: قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: «تَعَزُّزًا أَنْ لَا يَدْخُلَهَا إِلَّا مَنْ أَرَادُوا، فَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ إِذَا هُوَ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَهَا يَدَعُونَهُ يَرْتَقِي، حَتَّى إِذَا كَادَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ دَفَعُوهُ فَسَقَطَ»، قَالَ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ، لِلْحَارِثِ: أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَهَا تَقُولُ هَذَا؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: فَنَكَتَ سَاعَةً بِعَصَاهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي تَرَكْتُهُ وَمَا تَحَمَّلَ.

Harith bin 'Abdullah led a deputation to 'Abdul-Malik bin Marwan during his caliphate. 'Abdul-Malik said: I do riot think that Abu Khubaib (i.e. Ibn Zabair) had heard from 'A'isha (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا) (about the intended wish of the Prophet ﷺ In regard to the alteration of the Ka'ba). Harith said: Yes, I myself did hear from her. He ('Abdul-Malik) said: Well, tell me what you heard from her. He stated that she (Hadrat 'A'isha رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا ) had said that Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) remarked: Verily your people have reduced (the area) of the House from its (original foundations, and if they had not recently abandoned polytheism (and embraced Islam) I would have reversed it to (those foundations) which they had left out of it. nd if your people would take initiative after me in rebuilding it, then come along with me so that I should show you what they have left out of it. He showed her about fifteen cubits of area from the side of Hatim (that they had separated). This is the narration transmitted by 'Abdullah bin Ubaid. Walid bin 'Ata' has, however, made this addition to it: Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: I would have made two doors on the level of the ground (facing) the east and the west. Do you know why your people raised the level of its door (i. e. the door of the Ka'ba)? She said: No. He said: (They did it) out of vanity so that (they might be in a position) to grant admittance to him only whom they wished. When a person intended to get into it, they let him climb (the stairs), and as he was about to enter, they pushed him and he fell down. 'Abdul-Malik said to Harith; Did you yourself hear her saying this? He said: Yes. He (Harith) said that he ('Abdul-Malik) scratched the ground with his staff for some time and then said: I wish I had left his (Ibn Zubair's) work there.

وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَبَلَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، كِلَاهُمَا عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ. مِثْلَ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ بَكْرٍ.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Juraij with the same chain of transmitters.

وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ السَّهْمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ أَبِي صَغِيرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي قَزَعَةَ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ الْمَلِكِ بْنَ مَرْوَانَ بَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ إِذْ قَالَ: قَاتَلَ اللهُ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ حَيْثُ يَكْذِبُ عَلَى أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُهَا تَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «يَا عَائِشَةُ لَوْلَا حِدْثَانُ قَوْمِكِ بِالْكُفْرِ لَنَقَضْتُ الْبَيْتَ حَتَّى أَزِيدَ فِيهِ مِنَ الْحِجْرِ، فَإِنَّ قَوْمَكِ قَصَّرُوا فِي الْبِنَاءِ»، فَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ: لَا تَقُلْ هَذَا يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، فَأَنَا سَمِعْتُ أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ تُحَدِّثُ هَذَا قَالَ: لَوْ كُنْتُ سَمِعْتُهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَهْدِمَهُ، لَتَرَكْتُهُ عَلَى مَا بَنَى ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ.

While Abdul-Malik bin Marwan was circumambulating the Ka'ba he said: May Allah ruin Ibn Zubair that he lies in attributing to the Mother of the Faithful, as he says: I heard her stating that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had said: 'A'isha, if your people had not been new converts to Islam, I would have demolished the House and would have added (in it area) from the Hijr for your people have reduced the area from its foundations. Harith bin 'Abdullah bin Abu Rabi'a said: Commander of the Faithful, don't say that, for I heard the Mother of the Faithful saying this, whereupon he said: If I had heard this before demolishing it, I would have left it in the state in which Ibn Zabair رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ had built it.

— Abu Qaza'ah reported

حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَشْعَثُ بْنُ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ، عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْجَدْرِ أَمِنَ الْبَيْتِ هُوَ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ»، قُلْتُ: فَلِمَ لَمْ يُدْخِلُوهُ فِي الْبَيْتِ؟ قَالَ: «إِنَّ قَوْمَكِ قَصَّرَتْ بِهِمِ النَّفَقَةُ»، قُلْتُ: فَمَا شَأْنُ بَابِهِ مُرْتَفِعًا؟ قَالَ: «فَعَلَ ذَلِكِ قَوْمُكِ لِيُدْخِلُوا مَنْ شَاءُوا، وَيَمْنَعُوا مَنْ شَاءُوا، وَلَوْلَا أَنَّ قَوْمَكِ حَدِيثٌ عَهْدُهُمْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، فَأَخَافُ أَنْ تُنْكِرَ قُلُوبُهُمْ، لَنَظَرْتُ أَنْ أُدْخِلَ الْجَدْرَ فِي الْبَيْتِ، وَأَنْ أُلْزِقَ بَابَهُ بِالْأَرْضِ».

I asked Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) about the wall, circumpassing the House (i. e. whether the wall on the side of Hijr was included in the Ka'ba). He said, Yes. I said: Then why did they not include it in the House? He said: 'Your people ran short of the means (to do so). I said: Why is it that the level of its door is raised high? He said: Your people did it so that they should admit one whom they liked, and forbid him whom they disliked, and if your people were not new converts to faith, and I did not apprehend that their hearts would feel agitated at this. I would have definitely included (the area of) this wall-in the House and would have brought the door to the level of the ground.

— A'isha (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا) reported

وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ بْنِ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ، عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْحِجْرِ؟ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ، وَقَالَ فِيهِ: فَقُلْتُ: فَمَا شَأْنُ بَابِهِ مُرْتَفِعًا، لَا يُصْعَدُ إِلَيْهِ إِلَّا بِسُلَّمٍ، وَقَالَ: «مَخَافَةَ أَنْ تَنْفِرَ قُلُوبُهُمْ».

I asked Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) about Hijr, and the rest of the hadith is the same. I also said: Why is it that the door has been made on a higher level, and one cannot (get into it) but with the help of a ladder? The rest of the hadith is the same as reported above and the concluding words are: (I do not change it) out of the apprehension that their hearts may disapprove of it.

— A'isha رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہا reported

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: كَانَ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَدِيفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَجَاءَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ خَثْعَمَ تَسْتَفْتِيهِ، فَجَعَلَ الْفَضْلُ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا وَتَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ، فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصْرِفُ وَجْهَ الْفَضْلِ إِلَى الشِّقِّ الْآخَرِ، قَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ فَرِيضَةَ اللهِ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ فِي الْحَجِّ، أَدْرَكَتْ أَبِي شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَثْبُتَ عَلَى الرَّاحِلَةِ، أَفَأَحُجُّ عَنْهُ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ»، وَذَلِكَ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ.

While al-Fadl bin Abbas رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ had been riding behind Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) a women of the tribe of Khath'am came to him (to the Holy Prophet ﷺ) asking for a religious verdict. Fadl looked at her and she looked at him. Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) turned the face of al-Fadl to the other side. She said: Messenger of Allah, there is an obligation from Allah upon His servants in regard to Hajj. (But) my father is an aged man; he is incapable of riding safely. May I perform Hajj on his behalf? He said: Yes. It was during the Farewell Pilgrimage.

— It was narrated from Abdullah bin Abbas رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ that he said

حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنِ الْفَضْلِ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ خَثْعَمَ، قَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ أَبِي شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ، عَلَيْهِ فَرِيضَةُ اللهِ فِي الْحَجِّ، وَهُوَ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَسْتَوِيَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ بَعِيرِهِ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «فَحُجِّي عَنْهُ».

A woman of Banu Khath'am said: Messenger of Allah, my father is very old. There is an old obligation of Hajj upon him from Allah, but he is not capable of sitting on the back of the camel. Thereupon Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: Perform Hajj on his behalf.

— Fadl رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ reported

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، جَمِيعًا عَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ، مَوْلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَقِيَ رَكْبًا بِالرَّوْحَاءِ، فَقَالَ: «مَنِ الْقَوْمُ؟» قَالُوا: الْمُسْلِمُونَ، فَقَالُوا: مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ قَالَ: «رَسُولُ اللهِ»، فَرَفَعَتْ إِلَيْهِ امْرَأَةٌ صَبِيًّا، فَقَالَتْ: أَلِهَذَا حَجٌّ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ، وَلَكِ أَجْرٌ».

Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) met some riders at al-Rauha and asked who they were. They replied that they were Muslims. They said: Who art thou? He said: (I am) Messenger of Allah. A woman (then) lifted up a boy to him and said: Would this child be credited with having performed the Hajj? Thereupon he said: Yes, and you will have a reward.

— Ibn Abbas رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ reported

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: رَفَعَتِ امْرَأَةٌ صَبِيًّا لَهَا، فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَلِهَذَا حَجٌّ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ، وَلَكِ أَجْرٌ».

A woman lifted up her child and said: Messenger of Allah, would the child be credited with having performed the Hajj? Thereupon he said: Yes, and there would be a reward for you.

— Ibn Abbas ( رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ) reported

وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ، أَنَّ امْرَأَةً رَفَعَتْ صَبِيًّا، فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَلِهَذَا حَجٌّ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ، وَلَكِ أَجْرٌ».

A woman lifted a child and said: Messenger of Allah, would he be credited with Hajj? He said: Yes. and for you there would be a reward.

— Karaib reported

وَحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، بِمِثْلِهِ.

A hadith like this has been narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ through another chain of transmitters.

وحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ فَرَضَ اللهُ عَلَيْكُمُ الْحَجَّ، فَحُجُّوا»، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: أَكُلَّ عَامٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَسَكَتَ حَتَّى قَالَهَا ثَلَاثًا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لَوْ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ لَوَجَبَتْ، وَلَمَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «ذَرُونِي مَا تَرَكْتُكُمْ، فَإِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِكَثْرَةِ سُؤَالِهِمْ وَاخْتِلَافِهِمْ عَلَى أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ، فَإِذَا أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ فَأْتُوا مِنْهُ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ، وَإِذَا نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَدَعُوهُ».

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) addressed us and said: O people, Allah has made Hajj obligatory for you; so perform Hajj. Thereupon a person said: Messenger of Allah, (is it to be performed) every year? He (the Holy Prophet) kept quiet, and he repeated (these words) thrice, whereupon Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said: If I were to say Yes, it would become obligatory (for you to perform it every year) and you would not be able to do it. Then he said: Leave me with what I have left to you, for those who were before you were destroyed because of excessive questioning, and their opposition to their apostles. So when I command you to do anything, do it as much as it lies in your power and when I forbid you to do anything, then abandon it.

— Abu Huraira (رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ ) reported

حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى وَهُوَ الْقَطَّانُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا تُسَافِرِ الْمَرْأَةُ ثَلَاثًا، إِلَّا وَمَعَهَا ذُو مَحْرَمٍ».

Three (days) except (when) she has a Mahram with her.

— This hadith has been narrated on the same authority by Ubaidullah. And in the narration of Abu Bakr (the words are): More than three (days). Ibn Numair narrated on the authority of his father, (and the words are)

وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي فُدَيْكٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا الضَّحَّاكُ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ ‏ لاَ يَحِلُّ لاِمْرَأَةٍ تُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ تُسَافِرُ مَسِيرَةَ ثَلاَثِ لَيَالٍ إِلاَّ وَمَعَهَا ذُو مَحْرَمٍ ‏.‏

I heard a hadith from Abu Sa'id and it impressed me (very much), so I said to him: Did you hear it (yourself) from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)? Thereupon he said: (Can) I speak of anything about Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) which I did not bear? He said: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying: Do not set out on a journey (for religious devotion) but for the three mosques-for this mosque of mine (at Medina) the Sacred Mosque (at Mecca), and the Mosque al-Aqsa (Bait al-Maqdis), and I heard him saying also: A woman should not travel for two days duration, but only when there is a Mahram with her or her husband.

"More than three, except with a Mahram,"

— It was narrated from Qatada with this chain (a Hadith similar to no. 3264). He said
