bukhari:1608Muḥammad b. Bakr > Ibn Jurayj > ʿAmr b. Dīnār > Abū al-Shaʿthāʾ > And Man Yattaqī

Abu Ash-Sha'tha said, "Who keeps away from some portion of the Ka'bah?" Mu'awiya used to touch the four corners of the Ka'bah, Ibn 'Abbas said to him, "These two corners (the one facing the Hijr) are not to be touched." Mu'awiya said, "Nothing is untouchable in the Ka'bah." And Ibn Az-Zubair used to touch all the corners of the Ka'bah.  

البخاري:١٦٠٨وَقَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ عَنْ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَمَنْ يَتَّقِي شَيْئًا مِنَ الْبَيْتِ وَكَانَ مُعَاوِيَةُ يَسْتَلِمُ الأَرْكَانَ فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ إِنَّهُ لاَ يُسْتَلَمُ هَذَانِ الرُّكْنَانِ فَقَالَ لَيْسَ شَىْءٌ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ مَهْجُورًا وَكَانَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ ؓ يَسْتَلِمُهُنَّ كُلَّهُنَّ

[Machine] I hear their conversation, so Muawiyah woke up and took hold of the two corners of the Kaaba, and Ibn Abbas said to him, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not take hold of these two corners." Muawiyah said to him, "Leave me, O Ibn Abbas, for there is nothing of it abandoned."  

الطبراني:١٠٦٣٢حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْحَرَّانِيُّ ثنا أَبِي قَالَا ثنا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ خُثَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطُّفَيْلِ أَنَّهُ رَأَى مُعَاوِيَةَ يَطُوفُ بِالْكَعْبَةِ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَأَنَا أَتْلُوهُمَا فِي ظُهُورِهِمَا

أَسْمَعُ كَلَامَهُمَا فَطَفِقَ مُعَاوِيَةُ يَسْتَلِمُ رُكْنَيِ الْحَجَرِ فَيَقُولُ لَهُ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَسْتَلِمُ هَذَيْنِ الرُّكْنَيْنِ فَيَقُولُ مُعَاوِيَةُ ذَرْنِي مِنْكَ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ؛ فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ شَيْءٌ مِنْهَا مَهْجُورًا
