Hadith 2910

أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا السَّائِبُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ , قَالَ : " دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْكَعْبَةَ وَدَنَا خُرُوجُهُ وَوَجَدْتُ شَيْئًا ، فَذَهَبْتُ وَجِئْتُ سَرِيعًا ، فَوَجَدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَارِجًا ، فَسَأَلْتُ بِلَالًا " أَصَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْكَعْبَةِ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، رَكْعَتَيْنِ بَيْنَ السَّارِيَتَيْنِ " .
´It was narrated that Ibn Umar said:` "The Messenger of Allah entered the Kabah, and was about to come out, when I thought of something, so I came quickly and I found the Messenger of Allah coming out. I asked Bilal: Did the Messenger of Allah prayed inside the Kabah?' He said: 'Yes, two Rakahs between the two columns.'"

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Imam Malik rahimahullah does not hold the view that any kind of prayer should be performed inside the House of Allah (Baytullah), but this hadith is evidence against his position. (For further evidence, see Hadith: 2908)
