عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ:
لَمَّا بَلَغَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْحُلُمَ أَجْمَرَتِ امْرَأَةٌ الْكَعْبَةَ، فَطَارَتْ شَرَارَةٌ مِنْ مِجْمَرِهَا فِي ثِيَابِ الْكَعْبَةِ، فَاحْتَرَقَتْ، فَتَشَاوَرَتْ قُرَيْشٌ فِي هَدْمِهَا، وَهَابُوا هَدْمَهَا، فَقَالَ لَهُمُ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ: مَا تُرِيدُونَ بِهَدْمِهَا ؟ الْإِصْلَاحَ تُرِيدُونَ، أَمِ الْإِسَاءَةَ ؟ قَالُوا: نُرِيدُ الْإِصْلَاحَ قَالَ: فَإِنَّ اللهَ لَا يُهْلِكُ الْمُصْلِحَ، قَالُوا: فَمَنِ الَّذِي يَعْلُوهَا فَيَهْدِمُهَا ؟ قَالَ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ: أَنَا أَعْلُوهَا فَأَهْدِمُهَا، فَارْتَقَى الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْبَيْتِ وَمَعَهُ الْفَأْسُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا لَا نُرِيدُ إِلَّا الْإِصْلَاحَ، ثُمَّ هَدَمَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَتْهُ قُرَيْشٌ قَدْ هَدَمَ مِنْهَا، وَلَمْ يَأْتِهِمْ مَا خَافُوا، هَدَمُوا مَعَهُ حَتَّى إِذَا بَنَوْا فَبَلَغُوا مَوْضِعَ الرُّكْنِ، اخْتَصَمَتْ قُرَيْشٌ فِي الرُّكْنِ، أَيُّ الْقَبَائِلِ يَلِي رَفْعَهُ ؟ حَتَّى كَادَ يُشْجَرُ بَيْنَهُمْ قَالُوا: تَعَالَوْا نُحَكِّمُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ يَطْلُعُ عَلَيْنَا مِنْ هَذِهِ السِّكَّةِ، فَاصْطَلَحُوا عَلَى ذَلِكَ، فَطَلَعَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ غُلَامٌ، عَلَيْهِ وِشَاحٌ نَمِرَةٌ، فَحَكَّمُوهُ، فَأَمَرَ بِالرُّكْنِ، فَوُضِعَ فِي ثَوْبٍ، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ سَيِّدَ كُلِّ قَبِيلَةٍ، فَأَعْطَاهُ نَاحِيَةً مِنَ الثَّوْبِ، ثُمَّ ارْتَقَى هُوَ فَرَفَعُوا إِلَيْهِ الرُّكْنَ، فَكَانَ هُوَ يَضَعُهُ
Translation
✧ When the Messenger of God ﷺ reached puberty, a woman perfumed the Ka'bah with incense, and a spark flew from her incense burner into the Ka'bah's cloth coverings, and it burned. Quraysh consulted about demolishing it, but they feared to demolish it. Al-Walid b. al-Mughira said to them: 'What do you intend by demolishing it? Do you intend repair or harm?' They said: 'We intend repair.' He said: 'God will not destroy the one who repairs.' They said: 'Who will climb it and demolish it?' Al-Walid b. al-Mughira said: 'I will climb it and demolish it.' So al-Walid b. al-Mughira climbed onto the top of the House with an axe, then said: 'O God, we intend nothing but repair,' then he demolished. When Quraysh saw that he had demolished part of it and no harm came to them, they demolished with him. When they built and reached the place of the Corner, Quraysh disputed over the Corner—which tribe would have the honor of lifting it—until they almost came to blows. They said: 'Come, let us appoint as arbiter the first man who comes out to us from this alley.' They agreed on that. The Messenger of God ﷺ came out to them, a young lad wearing a striped waistcloth. They made him arbiter. He ordered that the Corner be placed on a cloth, then he ordered the chief of each tribe and gave him a side of the cloth to hold. Then he himself climbed up, and they lifted the Corner to him, and he placed it.
