حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ أَخْبَرَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَهَا: «أَلَمْ تَرَىْ أَنَّ قَوْمَكِ لَمَّا بَنَوُا الْكَعْبَةَ اقْتَصَرُوا عَنْ قَوَاعِدِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ؟» فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَلَا تَرُدُّهَا عَلَى قَوَاعِدِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ؟ قَالَ: «لَوْلَا حِدْثَانُ قَوْمِكِ بِالْكُفْرِ لَفَعَلْتُ». فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ؓ: لَئِنْ كَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ ؓ سَمِعَتْ هَذَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ، مَا أُرَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ تَرَكَ اسْتِلَامَ الرُّكْنَيْنِ اللَّذَيْنِ يَلِيَانِ الْحِجْرَ إِلَّا أَنَّ الْبَيْتَ لَمْ يُتَمَّمْ عَلَى قَوَاعِدِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ.

✧ that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to her: "Do you not see that when your people built the Kaaba, they fell short of the foundations of Ibrahim?" I said, "O Messenger of Allah, will you not restore it to the foundations of Ibrahim?" He said: "Were it not for your people's recent state of disbelief, I would have done so." Then Abdullah ᴿᴬ said, "If Aishah ᴿᴬ heard this from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I do not think the Messenger of Allah ﷺ left touching the two corners that are next to the Hijr except because the House was not completed upon the foundations of Ibrahim."
