575 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ قَالَ: ثنا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ: ثنا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحَجَبِيُّ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي خَالِي مُسَافِعُ بْنُ شَيْبَةَ عَنْ أُمِّي صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ قَالَتْ: أَخْبَرَتْنِي امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ وَلَدَتْ عَامَّةَ أَهْلِ دَارِهِمْ أَنَّهَا سَأَلَتْ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ دُعَاءِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِيَّاهُ بَعْدَ دُخُولِهِ الْكَعْبَةَ فَقَالَ: قَالَ لِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «إِنْ كُنْتُ رَأَيْتُ قَرْنَيِ الْكَبْشِ فِي الْبَيْتِ فَنَسِيتُ أَنْ آمُرَكَ أَنْ تُخَمِّرَهُمَا فَخَمِّرْهُمَا فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي الْبَيْتِ شَيْءٌ يَشْغَلُ الْمُصَلِّي»
Safiyyah bint Shaybah narrates: A woman belonging to Banu Sulaym told me that she asked Sayyiduna ‘Uthman bin Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) about the supplication made by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) after he entered the Ka‘bah. He replied: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: “I saw the horns of a ram inside the House (Ka‘bah), and I forgot to instruct you to cover them, so now you should cover them, for there should not be anything in the House of Allah that distracts the attention of a person praying.”
