"عنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: لَمَّا أمِرَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بِبِناءِ البَيتِ خَرَجَ مَعَة إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَهَاجَرُ، فَلمَّا قَدِمَ مَكَّةَ رَأى عَلَى رَأسِه فِى مَوْضِع البَيْتِ مِثْلَ الغَمَامَة، فيه مِثْلُ الرَّأسِ، فَكَلَّمهُ فَقَال: يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ: ابْن عَلِى ظِلِّىَ، أوَ عَلَى قَدْرِي، وَلاَ تَزِدْ وَلاَ تَنْقُصْ، فَلَمَّا بَنَى خَرجَ، وَخَلَّفَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَهَاجَرَ، وَذَلِكَ حِينَ يَقُولُ الله: {وَإِذْ بَوَّأْنَا لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ مَكَانَ الْبَيْتِ} الآيَة".

"On the authority of 'Ali, he said: When Ibrahim was commanded to build the House, Isma'il and Hajar went out with him. When he arrived at Makkah, he saw above his head, at the place of the House, something like a cloud with the shape of a head in it. He spoke to him and said: 'O Ibrahim, build upon my shade, or upon my measure, neither adding nor subtracting.' When he had finished building, he left, and left Isma'il and Hajar behind. That is the time when Allah says: {And [mention] when We settled for Ibrahim the place of the House} [22:26], and the verse."
