Urdu footnote:
"Near the third part" refers to the section of the eastern wall of the Ka'bah that is adjacent to the Rukn Yamani. This is the area opposite the door. The remaining wall is divided into two parts. It is possible that in that era, marks were placed on the floor or wall to indicate the sections. Or it is possible that they estimated the divisions. And Allah knows best. This narration is weak in its chain of transmission.
