The Prophet ﷺ entered the Kaʿba along with Usama bin Zaid, ʿUthman bin Talha and Bilal and remained there for a long time. When they came out, I was the first man to enter the Kaʿba. I asked Bilal "Where did the Prophet ﷺ pray?" Bilal replied, "Between the two front Pillars."  

دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ وَبِلاَلٌ فَأَطَالَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ وَكُنْتُ أَوَّلَ النَّاسِ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَثَرِهِ فَسَأَلْتُ بِلاَلاً أَيْنَ صَلَّى قَالَ بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْمُقَدَّمَيْنِ  

"Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Usama bin Zaid, Bilal, and ʿUthman bin abu Talha entered the Kaʿba and then closed its door. When they opened the door I was the first person to enter (the Kaʿba). I met Bilal and asked him, "Did Messenger of Allah ﷺ offer a prayer inside (the Kaʿba)?" Bilal replied in the affirmative and said, "(The Prophet ﷺ offered the prayer) in between the two right pillars."  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ هُوَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلاَلٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَغْلَقُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمَّا فَتَحُوا كُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ وَلَجَ فَلَقِيتُ بِلاَلاً فَسَأَلْتُهُ هَلْ صَلَّى فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ نَعَمْ بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْيَمَانِيَيْنِ  

Where did Allah's Apostle ﷺ observe prayer? They said: At this very place. I, however, forgot to ask them about the (number of) rak'ahs that he observed.  

أَنَّهُ انْتَهَى إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ وَقَدْ دَخَلَهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَبِلاَلٌ وَأُسَامَةُ وَأَجَافَ عَلَيْهِمْ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ الْبَابَ قَالَ فَمَكَثُوا فِيهِ مَلِيًّا ثُمَّ فُتِحَ الْبَابُ فَخَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَرَقِيتُ الدَّرَجَةَ فَدَخَلْتُ الْبَيْتَ فَقُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالُوا هَا هُنَا قَالَ وَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُمْ كَمْ صَلَّى  

Did Messenger of Allah ﷺ observe prayer in it? He said: Yes, he observed prayer between these two Yemenite pillars (pillars situated towards the side of Yemen).  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ هُوَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلاَلٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَغْلَقُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمَّا فَتَحُوا كُنْتُ فِي أَوَّلِ مَنْ وَلَجَ فَلَقِيتُ بِلاَلاً فَسَأَلْتُهُ هَلْ صَلَّى فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ نَعَمْ صَلَّى بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْيَمَانِيَيْنِ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the House (the Ka'bah), with Usamah bin Zaid, Bilal and 'Uthman bin Talhah, and they locked the door behind them. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ opened it, I was the first one to enter. I met Bilal and asked him: 'Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray inside?' He said: 'Yes, he prayed between the two Yemeni columns.'"  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ هُوَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلاَلٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَغْلَقُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمَّا فَتَحَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ كُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ وَلَجَ فَلَقِيتُ بِلاَلاً فَسَأَلْتُهُ هَلْ صَلَّى فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ نَعَمْ صَلَّى بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْيَمَانِيَيْنِ  

"The Messenger of Allah entered the House, accompanied by Al-Fadl bin abbas, Usmah bin Zaid,. Uthman bin Talhah and Bilal. They shut the door, and he stayed there for as long as Allah willed, then he coame out." Ibn Umar said: "The first one whom I met was Bilal, and I said: "Where did the Prophet pray?' He said: "Between the two columns.'"  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ وَمَعَهُ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ وَبِلاَلٌ فَأَجَافُوا عَلَيْهِمُ الْبَابَ فَمَكَثَ فِيهِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ كَانَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ لَقِيتُ بِلاَلاً قُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالَ مَا بَيْنَ الأُسْطُوَانَتَيْنِ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the House (the Ka'bah), with Usamah bin Zaid, Bilal and 'Uthman bin Talhah, and they locked the door behind them. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ opened it, I was the first one to enter. I met Bilal and asked him: 'Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray inside?' He said: 'Yes, he prayed between the two Yemeni columns.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 692)   

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلَالٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ الْحَجَبِيُّ فَأَغْلَقُوا عَلَيْهِمُ الْبَابَ فَلَمَّا فَتَحُوا كُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ وَلَجَ فَلَقِيتُ بِلَالًا فَسَأَلْتُهُ هَلْ صَلَّى فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْيَمَانِيَيْنِ قَالَ هَاشِمٌ صَلَّى بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ  

"The Messenger of Allah entered the House, accompanied by Al-Fadl bin abbas, Usmah bin Zaid,. Uthman bin Talhah and Bilal. They shut the door, and he stayed there for as long as Allah willed, then he coame out." Ibn Umar said: "The first one whom I met was Bilal, and I said: "Where did the Prophet pray?' He said: "Between the two columns.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2906)   

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ وَمَعَهُ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ وَبِلَالٌ فَأَمَرَ بِلَالًا فَأَجَافَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْبَابَ فَمَكَثَ فِيهِ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فَكَانَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ لَقِيتُ مِنْهُمْ بِلَالًا فَقُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ هَاهُنَا بَيْنَ الْأُسْطُوَانَتَيْنِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the house along with Bilal, Usama ibn Zaid, and Uthman ibn Talha. They knocked on the door and stayed for an hour, then he came out. When the door was opened, I was the first one to enter, so I asked Bilal, "Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray?" He said, "Between the two front pillars." I forgot to ask him how many raka'at he prayed.  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ هُو وَبِلَالٌ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَجَافُوا الْبَابَ وَمَكَثُوا سَاعَةً ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَلَمَّا فُتِحَ كُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ دَخَلَ فَسَأَلْتُ بِلَالًا أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْمُقَدَّمَيْنِ وَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ كَمْ صَلَّى  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered on the day of the conquest of Mecca on a camel belonging to Usama bin Zaid until he reached the courtyard of the Kaaba. He called for Usama bin Talha with the key, so he came with it and opened the door. The Prophet ﷺ entered along with Usama, Bilal, and Usama bin Talha. They crowded around them by the door, then they opened it. Abdullah said, "I hastened to people and found Bilal standing by the door, so I asked him, 'Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray?' He said, 'Between the two front pillars.' He said, 'And I forgot to ask him how many units he prayed.'"  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ فَتْحِ مَكَّةَ عَلَى نَاقَةٍ لِأُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ حَتَّى أَنَاخَ بِفِنَاءِ الْكَعْبَةِ فَدَعَا عُثْمَانَ بْنَ طَلْحَةَ بِالْمِفْتَاحِ فَجَاءَ بِهِ فَفَتَحَ فَدَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأُسَامَةُ وَبِلَالٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَجَافُوا عَلَيْهِمُ الْبَابَ مَلِيًّا ثُمَّ فَتَحُوهُ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ فَبَادَرْتُ النَّاسَ فَوَجَدْتُ بِلَالًا عَلَى الْبَابِ قَائِمًا فَقُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْمُقَدَّمَيْنِ قَالَ وَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ كَمْ صَلَّى  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ entered the house with Bilal, Usama bin Zaid, and Uthman bin Talha. He commanded Bilal to close the door behind them, and they stayed inside for a while. Then he went out, and when he opened the door, I was the first to enter. I asked Bilal, "Where did the Messenger of Allah pray?" He replied, "Between the two pillars in the front," but I forgot to ask him how many units (rak'ahs) he prayed.  

أن رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ دَخَل الْبَيْتَ هُوَ وبِلَالٌ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَمَرَ بِلَالًا فَأَجَافَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْبَابَ فَمَكَثُوا سَاعَةً ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَلَمَّا فَتَحَ كُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَْ دَخَلَ فَسَأَلْتُ بلِاَلًا أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ؟ قَالَ بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِالْمُقَدَّمَيْنِ وَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ كَمْ صَلَّى؟  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the Ka’bah on the Day of the Conquest (of Makkah), with Bilal and ‘Uthman bin Shaibah, and they locked the door behind them from the inside. When they came out, I asked Bilal: ‘Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray?’ He told me that when he entered, he turned to his right and prayed in the direction that he was facing, between the two columns.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3063)   

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ الْكَعْبَةَ وَمَعَهُ بِلَالٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَغْلَقُوا عَلَيْهِمُ الْبَابَ مِنْ دَاخِلٍ فَلَمَّا خَرَجُوا سَأَلْتُ بِلَالًا قُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ رَأَيْتُهُ «صَلَّى عَلَى وَجْهِهِ حِينَ دَخَلَ بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ» ثُمَّ لُمْتُ نَفْسِي أَنْ لَا أَكُونَ سَأَلْتُهُ كَمْ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

Messenger of Allah, ﷺ entered the House, and Usama, Bilal and Uthman b. Talha were with him, and they kept the door closed for a considerable time. Then it was opened and I was the first to enter the House and meet Bilal, and I said: Where did Messenger of Allah ﷺ observe prayer? He said: Between these two front pillars. I, however, forgot to ask him the number of rak'ahs that he observed. (Using translation from Muslim 1329d)  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ وَمَعَهُ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلَالٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَجَافُوا الْبَابَ عَلَيْهِمْ طَوِيلًا ثُمَّ فُتِحَ فَكُنْتُ أَوْلَ مَنْ دَخَلَ فَلَقِيتُ بِلَالًا فَقُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ «بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْمُقَدَّمَيْنِ» فَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ كَمْ صَلَّى  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the Kaaba, alongside Usama bin Zaid, Bilal, and Uthman bin Talha. He stayed in the house for a while and then came out. Abdullah bin Umar followed in his footsteps and was the first to ask Bilal, "Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray?" Bilal replied, "Between the two front pillars." I forgot to ask him how many times he prayed.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ دَخَلَ الْكَعْبَةَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلَالٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَمَكَثَ فِي الْبَيْتِ فَأَطَالَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَدَخَلَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ عَلَى أَثَرِهِ أَوَّلَ النَّاسِ فَسَأَلَ بِلَالًا أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْمُقَدَّمَيْنِ» وَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ كَمْ صَلَّى  

[Machine] "I saw the Prophet ﷺ enter the house with a group of people including Usama bin Zaid, Al-Fadl bin Abbas, Uthman bin Talha, and Bilal. They closed the door, so I stood by the door. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out, Bilal was the first to greet me. I asked, 'Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray?' He replied, 'Between the two columns.'"  

رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ وَمَعَهُ رَهْطُ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَالْفَضْلُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ وَبِلَالٌ فَأَجَافَ الْبَابَ فَقُمْتُ عَلَى الْبَابِ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَكُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنِ اسْتَقْبَلَنِي بِلَالٌ فَقُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «بَيْنَ الْأُسْطَوَانَتَيْنِ»  

[Machine] "That the Prophet ﷺ entered the Kaaba, and Usama bin Zaid, Uthman bin Talha, and Bilal were with him, and he stayed there for a while. I was the first person to enter after the footsteps of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so I asked Bilal, 'Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray?' He said, 'He performed two Rak'ahs between the two front pillars.'"  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ الْكَعْبَةَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ وَبِلَالٌ فَمَكَثَ بِهَا فَأَطَالَ» وَكُنْتُ أَوَّلَ النَّاسِ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَثَرَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ لِبِلَالٍ أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «رَكْعَتَيْنِ بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْمُقَدَّمَيْنِ»  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the Kaaba and with him were Usama bin Zaid, Bilal, and Hajib al-Kaaba. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out, I was the first to enter and I found Bilal at the door. I asked him where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray? He replied, 'Between the two front pillars.'"  

«دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْكَعْبَةَ وَمَعَهُ أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلَالٌ وَمَعَهُ حَاجِبُ الْكَعْبَةِ» فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ دَخَلَ فَوَجَدْتُ بِلَالًا عَلَى الْبَابِ فَسَأَلْتُهُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْمُقَدَّمَيْنِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered the house accompanied by Al-Fadl ibn Abbas, Usamah ibn Zaid, Bilal, and Uthman ibn Talhah. He stayed for a while and then left. I hurriedly went to see the people and found myself among the first to enter. I met Bilal and asked him, "Where did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray?" He replied, "Between the two front pillars." Ibn Umar said, "And I forgot to ask him how many units he prayed."  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ وَدَخَلَ مَعَهُ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلَالٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَطَالَ الْمُكْثَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَابْتَدَرْتُ النَّاسَ فَكُنْتُ فِي أَوَّلِ مَنْ دَخَلَ فَلَقِيتُ بِلَالًا فَقُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «بَيْنَ الْأُسْطَوَانَتَيْنِ الْمُقَدَّمَتَيْنِ» قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ «وَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ كَمْ صَلَّى»  

Did Messenger of Allah ﷺ observe prayer in it? He said: Yes, he observed prayer between these two Yemenite pillars (pillars situated towards the side of Yemen). (Using translation from Muslim 1329f)  

«أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ دَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ هُوَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلَالٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَغْلَقُوا عَلَيْهِمْ» فَلَمَّا فَتَحُوا كُنْتُ فِي أَوَّلِ مَنْ وَلَجَ فَلَقِيتُ بِلَالًا فَقُلْتُ لَهُ صَلَّى فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ «صَلَّى بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْيَمَانِيَيْنِ»  

"Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Usama bin Zaid, Bilal, and ʿUthman bin abu Talha entered the Kaʿba and then closed its door. When they opened the door I was the first person to enter (the Kaʿba). I met Bilal and asked him, "Did Messenger of Allah ﷺ offer a prayer inside (the Kaʿba)?" Bilal replied in the affirmative and said, "(The Prophet ﷺ offered the prayer) in between the two right pillars." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1598)  

دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْبَيْتَ هُوَ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَبِلَالٌ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ فَأَغْلَقُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمَّا فَتَحُوا كُنْتُ أَوَّلَ مَنْ وَلَجَ فَلَقِيتُ بِلَالًا فَسَأَلْتُهُ هَلْ صَلَّى فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ صَلَّى بَيْنَ الْعَمُودَيْنِ الْيَمَانِيَّيْنِ»
