English translation

1875. It was reported from Ma'mar, from Az-Zuhri, from Sālim, from that Ibn 'Umar, that he was informed of 'Āishah's statement: "Part of the Hījr is (included) in the House." Ibn 'Umar said: "By Allāh, I think that 'Āishah heard this from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. I think that the only reason the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ left touching those two corners is because they were not built on the foundations of the House. And the only reason that people perform Tawāf from behind the Hījr is because of this." (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

١٨٧٥ - حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ أُخْبِرَ بِقَوْلِ، عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، «إِنَّ الْحِجْرَ بَعْضُهُ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ»، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَظُنُّ عَائِشَةَ إِنْ كَانَتْ سَمِعَتْ هَذَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنِّي لَأَظُنُّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَتْرُكِ اسْتِلَامَهُمَا إِلَّا أَنَّهُمَا لَيْسَا عَلَى قَوَاعِدِ الْبَيْتِ وَلَا طَافَ النَّاسُ وَرَاءَ الْحِجْرِ إِلَّا لِذَلِكَ "

Commentary

During Tawāf one must pass outside the Hījr, also referred to as the Ḥaṭim (the unroofed portion of the Ka'bah on the northern side).
