حَدَّثَنَا مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا رَيْحَانُ هُوَ ابْنُ سَعِيدٍ السَّامِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادٌ هُوَ ابْنُ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي الرَّجَاءِ قَالَ
«كُنَّا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ إِذَا أَصَبْنَا حَجَرًا حَسَنًا عَبَدْنَاهُ وَإِنْ لَمْ نُصِبْ حَجَرًا جَمَعْنَا كُثْبَةً مِنْ رَمْلٍ ثُمَّ جِئْنَا بِالنَّاقَةِ الصَّفِيِّ فَتَفَاجُّ عَلَيْهَا فَنَحْلُبُهَا عَلَى الْكُثْبَةِ حَتَّى نَرْوِيَهَا ثُمَّ نَعْبُدُ تِلْكَ الْكُثْبَةَ مَا أَقَمْنَا بِذَلِكَ الْمَكَانِ»

✧ “In the time of ignorance, when we found a good stone, we would worship it. If we did not find a stone, we would gather a heap of sand, then bring a choice she-camel, make her stand over it with her legs spread, and milk her over the heap until we had watered it. Then we would worship that heap as long as we stayed in that place.”
