Hadith 23794

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ خُثَيْمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ ، قَالَ : " لَمَّا بُنِيَ الْبَيْتُ كَانَ النَّاسُ يَنْقُلُونَ الْحِجَارَةَ وَالنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْقُلُ مَعَهُمْ ، فَأَخَذَ الثَّوْبَ فَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى عَاتِقِهِ ، فَنُودِيَ : لَا تَكْشِفْ عَوْرَتَكَ ، فَأَلْقَى الْحَجَرَ وَلَبِسَ ثَوْبَهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Tufail (may Allah be pleased with him) (mentioning the construction of the Ka'bah during the time of ignorance) that when the construction of the House of Allah began (the Quraysh first completely demolished it and started rebuilding it with stones from the valley), people were carrying stones, among whom was also the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). (The Quraysh had kept it twenty cubits long.) The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was wearing a woolen sheet, but during the carrying of stones, it became difficult to manage it, so the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed that sheet on his shoulder. At that moment, someone called out, "Cover your private part," so the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) threw down the stone and wrapped himself in his sheet. Peace and blessings be upon him.
