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)
