2920. It was narrated that 'Aţâ' said: "I heard Ibn 'Abbâs say: 'Usâmah bin Zaid told me that the Prophet ﷺ entered the House, and supplicated in all its corners, but he did not pray inside until he came out; when he came out he prayed two Rak'ahs in front of the Ka'bah." (Sahih)

Arabic text

2917 - أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ خُشَيْشُ بْنُ أَصْرَمَ النَّسَائِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، يَقُولُ أَخْبَرَنِي أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ «أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ فَدَعَا فِي نَوَاحِيهِ كُلِّهَا، وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ فِيهِ حَتَّى خَرَجَ مِنْهُ، فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ، رَكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي قُبُلِ الْكَعْبَةِ»

Commentary

Performing prayer outside of the Ka'bah, just in its immediate front is not a disputed issue. The conflict is in the matter of praying inside of the Ka'bah, and it has been already discussed. (see No. 2912)
