[Machine] There were images in the Kaaba, so the Prophet ﷺ ordered Umar ibn Al-Khattab to erase them. Umar then wrapped a garment around his hand and rubbed them off. After this, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the Kaaba, and there was nothing left of them.  

أحمد:١٥٢٦١حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ

كَانَ فِي الْكَعْبَةِ صُوَرٌ فَأَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ أَنْ يَمْحُوَهَا فَبَلَّ عُمَرُ ثَوْبًا وَمَحَاهَا بِهِ فَدَخَلَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَا فِيهَا مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ
