أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الرِّبَاطِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا قُرَّةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنْ عَمَّتِهِ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ ، قَالَتْ : حَدَّثَتْنَا عَائِشَةُ ، قَالَتْ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَلَا أَدْخُلُ الْبَيْتَ ؟ قَالَ : " ادْخُلِي الْحِجْرَ ، فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ الْبَيْتِ " .
´Aisha said:` "I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Can I not enter the House?' He said: 'Enter the Hijr for it is part of the House.'"
Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
Although the "Hijr" is (an internal) part of the Ka'bah, one should not perform prayer facing only towards the Hijr, because according to some narrations, a portion of external space is also included in it. Therefore, the Ka'bah itself should also be in front (as the direction of prayer).
