Sirat Ibn Hisham 226
al-Zubayr's poem about the serpent that Quraysh feared when building the Kaʿbah
[ ارْتِفَاعُ الْكَعْبَةِ وَأَوَّلُ مَنْ كَسَاهَا الدِّيبَاجَ ] وَكَانَتِ الْكَعْبَةُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثَمَانِي عَشْرَةَ ذِرَاعًا، وَكَانَتْ تُكْسَى الْقَبَاطِيَّ، ثُمَّ كُسِيتِ الْبُرُودَ، وَأَوَّلُ مَنْ كَسَاهَا الدِّيبَاجَ الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ
Translation
✧ [The Height of the Kaʿbah and the First to Clothe It in Silk Brocade] The Kaʿbah in the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was eighteen cubits, and it used to be clothed in fine white Egyptian linen (al-qabāṭī), then it was clothed in striped Yemeni cloaks (al-burūd); and the first to clothe it in silk brocade (al-dībāj) was al-Ḥajjāj b. Yūsuf.
