Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Banu Talhah, take it, forever and from generation to generation (it will remain with you); none will take it from you except a wrongdoer." The narrator says: This refers to the office of keeping the Ka'bah (hijabah, that is, holding its key).
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains a narrator, Abdullah bin al-Mu'ammal, whom Ibn Hibban declared thiqah (trustworthy) and said: "He makes mistakes"; according to one report Yahya bin Ma'in declared him thiqah, and a group declared him da'if (weak).
