Hadith 3011
Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that I asked Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him): "Where did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) perform the prayer?" He replied: "He performed the prayer at the front part of the Sacred House (Ka'bah)." There was a distance of three hand spans, or approximately three hand spans, between him and the cedar wood of the Ka'bah. The narrator of the hadith, Abu 'Amir, is uncertain about these words.
