2988. Narrated 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar رضي الله عنهما: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ came to Makkah through its higher region, on the day of the Conquest (of Makkah) riding his she-camel on which Usāma was riding behind him. Bilāl and 'Uthmān bin Ṭalḥa, from Al-Hajabah (i.e., the one who keeps the key of the door of the Ka'bah and is considered as a servant of the Ka'bah), were also accompanying him till he made his camel kneel in the mosque and ordered the latter to bring the key of the Ka'bah. He opened the door of the Ka'bah and Allāh's Messenger ﷺ entered in the company of Usāma, Bilāl and 'Uthmān, and stayed in it for a long period. When he came out, the people rushed to it, and I (Abdullāh bin 'Umar) was the first to enter it and found Bilāl standing behind the door. I asked Bilāl, "Where did the Prophet ﷺ offer his Ṣalāt (prayer)?" He pointed to the place where he had offered his Ṣalāt (prayer). 'Abdullāh added, "I forgot to ask him how many Rak'a he had performed."

2988 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، قَالَ يُونُسُ: أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَقْبَلَ يَوْمَ الفَتْحِ مِنْ أَعْلَى مَكَّةَ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ مُرْدِفًا أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ، وَمَعَهُ بِلاَلٌ، وَمَعَهُ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ مِنَ الحَجَبَةِ، حَتَّى أَنَاخَ فِي المَسْجِدِ، فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ بِمِفْتَاحِ البَيْتِ فَفَتَحَ، وَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَعَهُ أُسَامَةُ، وَبِلاَلٌ، وَعُثْمَانُ، فَمَكَثَ فِيهَا نَهَارًا طَوِيلًا، ثُمَّ خَرَجَ»، فَاسْتَبَقَ النَّاسُ، وَكَانَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ دَخَلَ، فَوَجَدَ بِلاَلًا وَرَاءَ البَابِ قَائِمًا، فَسَأَلَهُ " أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ فَأَشَارَ لَهُ إِلَى المَكَانِ الَّذِي صَلَّى فِيهِ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: فَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ كَمْ صَلَّى مِنْ سَجْدَةٍ
