وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْأَزْرَقُ، بِبَغْدَادَ إِمْلَاءً، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ لِعَلِيٍّ ؓ، أَخْبِرْنِي عَنْ بِنَائِهِ، قَالَ:

أَوْحَى اللهُ تَعَالَى إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَنِ ابْنِ لِي بَيْتًا، قَالَ: فَضُيِّقَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ ذَرْعًا، فَأَرْسَلَ اللهُ تَعَالَى رِيحًا يُقَالُ لَهَا: السَّكِينَةُ، وَيُقَالُ: الْخَجُوجُ، لَهَا عَيْنَانِ وَرَأْسٌ، فَأَوْحَى اللهُ تَعَالَى إِلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَنْ يَسِيرَ إِذَا سَارَتْ، وَيَقِيلَ إِذَا قَالَتْ، فَسَارَتْ حَتَّى انْتَهَتْ إِلَى مَوْضِعِ الْبَيْتِ، فَتَطَوَّقَتْ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلَ الْحَجَفَةِ، وَهِيَ بِإِزَاءِ الْبَيْتِ الْمَعْمُورِ، يَدْخُلُهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ، لَا يَعُودُونَ إِلَيْهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ، فَجَعَلَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَإِسْمَاعِيلُ يَبْنِيَانِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ سَاقًا، فَإِذَا اشْتَدَّ عَلَيْهِمَا الْحَرُّ، اسْتَظَلَّا فِي ظِلِّ الْجَبَلِ، فَلَمَّا بَلَغَا مَوْضِعَ الْحَجَرِ، قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِإِسْمَاعِيلَ: ائْتِنِي بِحَجَرٍ أَضَعُهُ يَكُونُ عَلَمًا لِلنَّاسِ، فَاسْتَقْبَلَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ الْوَادِي وَجَاءَ بِحَجَرٍ، فَاسْتَصْغَرَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَرَمَى بِهِ، وَقَالَ: جِئْنِي بِغَيْرِهِ، فَذَهَبَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ، وَهَبَطَ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ بِالْحَجَرِ الْأَسْوَدَ، فَجَاءَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ: قَدْ جَاءَنِي مَنْ لَمْ يَكِلْنِي فِيهِ إِلَى حَجَرِكَ، قَالَ: فَبَنَى الْبَيْتَ، وَجَعَلَ يَطُوفُ حَوْلَهُ، وَيَطُوفُونَ وَيُصَلُّونَ، حَتَّى مَاتُوا وَانْقَرَضُوا، فَتَهَدَّمَ الْبَيْتُ، فَبَنَتْهُ الْعَمَالِقَةُ، فَكَانُوا يَطُوفُونَ بِهِ حَتَّى مَاتُوا وَانْقَرَضُوا، فَبَنَتْهُ قُرَيْشٌ، فَلَمَّا بَلَغُوا مَوْضِعَ الْحَجَرِ اخْتَلَفُوا فِي وَضْعِهِ، فَقَالُوا: أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَطْلُعُ مِنَ الْبَابِ

✧ Allah, exalted is He, revealed to Ibrahim, 'Build Me a house.' He said: Ibrahim ﷺ felt constrained by it, so Allah, exalted is He, sent a wind called the Sakina, also called the Khajuj, which had two eyes and a head. Allah, exalted is He, revealed to Ibrahim to move when it moved and rest when it rested. It moved until it reached the site of the House, and it encircled it like a shield, and it is opposite the Populated House, which seventy thousand angels enter every day and never return to until the Day of Resurrection. Ibrahim and Ismail began building one course each day, and when the heat became intense for them, they sought shade in the shadow of the mountain. When they reached the place of the Stone, Ibrahim said to Ismail, 'Bring me a stone to place as a marker for the people.' Ismail faced the valley and came with a stone, but Ibrahim found it too small and threw it away, saying, 'Bring me another.' Ismail went off, and Jibril descended to Ibrahim with the Black Stone. Ismail came back, and Ibrahim said to him, 'Someone has come to me who did not leave me to rely on your stone.' He said: He built the House and began circumambulating it, and they circumambulated and prayed until they died and passed away. Then the House fell into ruin, and the Amalekites rebuilt it, and they circumambulated it until they died and passed away. Then Quraysh rebuilt it. When they reached the place of the Stone, they differed over its placement and said, 'The first person to appear from the gate.'
