Bayhaqi 3781 — Praying inside the Kaaba

أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الْمِهْرَجَانِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْعَبْدِيُّ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلَ الْكَعْبَةَ هُوَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ الْحَجَبِيُّ وَبِلَالُ بْنُ رَبَاحٍ فَأَغْلَقَهَا عَلَيْهِ وَمَكَثَ فِيهَا قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ: فَسَأَلْتُ بِلَالًا حِينَ خَرَجَ مَاذَا صَنَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ فَقَالَ: جَعَلَ عَمُودًا عَنْ يَسَارِهِ وَعَمُودَيْنِ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَثَلَاثَةَ أَعْمِدَةٍ وَرَاءَهُ، وَكَانَ الْبَيْتُ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَى سِتَّةِ أَعْمِدَةٍ ثُمَّ صَلَّى وَكَذَلِكَ قَالَهُ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ فِي إِحْدَى الرِّوَايَتَيْنِ عَنْهُ.
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered the Ka'bah, and Sayyiduna Bilal bin Rabah, Sayyiduna Usamah bin Zayd and Sayyiduna Uthman bin Talhah al-Hajabi (may Allah be pleased with them) also entered with him. They closed the door, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) remained inside for some time. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: When they came out, I asked Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him): What did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) do inside the Ka'bah? He said that he (peace and blessings be upon him) placed one pillar to his left, two pillars to his right and three pillars behind him, and prayed. In those days the Ka'bah stood on six pillars.
