ذِكْرُ الْإِبَاحَةِ لِلْمَرْءِ أَنْ يُعِينَ فِي بِنَاءِ الْمَسَاجِدِ وَلَوْ بِنَفْسِهِ

[Machine] He heard Jabir ibn Abdullah say: When the Kaaba was built, the Prophet ﷺ and Abbas were moving the stones. Abbas said to the Prophet ﷺ , "Put your cloak on your shoulder to protect yourself from the stones." So, the Prophet ﷺ did so, and he bent down to the ground, and his eyes glanced towards the sky. Then he stood up and said, "My cloak, my cloak!" And he tightened his cloak on himself.

When the Kaʿba was built, the Prophet ﷺ and ʿAbbas went to bring stones (for its construction). Al ʿAbbas said to the Prophet, "Take off your waist sheet and put it on your neck." (When the Prophet ﷺ took it off) he fell on the ground with his eyes open towards the sky and said, "Give me my waist sheet." And he covered himself with it.

When the Kaʿba was rebuilt, the Prophet ﷺ and ʿAbbas went to carry stones. ʿAbbas said to the Prophet ﷺ "(Take off and) put your waist sheet over your neck so that the stones may not hurt you." (But as soon as he took off his waist sheet) he fell unconscious on the ground with both his eyes towards the sky. When he came to his senses, he said, "My waist sheet! My waist sheet!" Then he tied his waist sheet (round his waist).

When the Ka'ba was constructed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Abbas went and lifted stones. Abbas said to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: Place your lower garment on your shoulder (so that you may protect yourself from the roughness and hardness of stones). He (the Holy Prophet) did this, but fell down upon the ground in a state of unconciousness and his eyes were turned towards the sky. He then stood up and said: My lower garment, my lower garment; and this wrapper was tied around him. In the hadith transmitted by Ibn Rafi', there is the word:" On his neck" and he did not say:" Upon his shoulder."
