Messenger of Allah ﷺ came on the Day of Victory, and got down in the courtyard of the Ka'ba and he sent (a message) for 'Uthman b. Talha (Allah be pleased with them). He came with the key and opened the door. Allah's Apostle ﷺ then entered therein and Bilal, Usama b. Zaid, and 'Uthman b. Talha (along with him), and then commanded the door to be closed. They stayed there for a considerable time, and then the door was opened, and Abdullah said: I was the first to meet Messenger of Allah. ﷺ. outside (the Ka'ba), and Bilal was close behind him. I said to Bilal: Did Messenger of Allah ﷺ observe prayer therein? He said: Yes. I said: Where? He said: Between the two pillars in front of his face. He said: I forgot to ask him as to the number of rakahs he prayed.

[Machine] Narrated Ibn 'Umar: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered Makkah on the day of the conquest while he was riding on a camel belonging to Usamah bin Zaid. He headed towards the Ka'bah, then he called for Uthman bin Talhah with the key. When he brought it to him, his mother refused to give it to him. So he said, "Either you give it to me or I will draw out the sword from my sheath." So she gave it to him, and he opened the gate and entered. With him were Bilal, Uthman, and Usamah. They circled the Ka'bah and locked the gate after them. Ibn 'Umar said: "I was a young and strong man, so I hurried ahead of the people and surpassed them. I found Bilal standing by the gate, so I asked him, 'Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray?' He said, 'Between the two pillars in front.' I forgot to ask him how many Rak'ahs he prayed."
