Someone came to Ibn ʿUmar and said, "Here is Messenger of Allah ﷺ entering the Kaʿba." Ibn ʿUmar said, "I went there but the Prophet ﷺ had come out of the Kaʿba and I found Bilal standing between its two doors. I asked Bilal, 'Did the Prophet ﷺ pray in the Kaʿba?' Bilal replied, 'Yes, he prayed two rakʿat between the two pillars which are to your left on entering the Kaʿba. Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out and offered a two-rakʿat prayer facing the Kaʿba.' "

[Machine] Ibn Umar was at his house when someone told him that the Prophet ﷺ had entered the Kaaba. So, he approached and found the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had come out, and he found Bilal standing between the two doors. Ibn Umar asked Bilal, "Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray in the Kaaba?" Bilal replied, "Yes, he prayed two units of prayer between these two pillars," and he pointed to the two pillars to the left when you enter. Then the Prophet ﷺ came out and prayed two units of prayer facing the Kaaba.
