"O Aishah, were if not for the fact that your people have recently left Jahiliyyah, I would have commanded that the House be knocked down, and I would have incorporated into it what was left out of it. I would have made its (door) in level with the ground and I would have given it two doors, an eastern door and a western door. For they built it too small, and by doing this, it would have been built on the foundation of Ibrahim, peace be upon him." He (one of the narrators said: "This is what motivated Ibn Az-Zubair to knock it down." Yazid said: "I saw Ibn Az-Zubair when he knocked it down and rebuilt it, and included part of the Hijr in it. And I saw the foundation of Ibrahim, peace be upon him, stones like the humps of camels joined to one another." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2903)  

الكبرى للنسائي:٣٨٧٢أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَلَّامٍ الطَّرَسُوسِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ رُومَانَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَهَا «يَا عَائِشَةُ لَوْلَا أَنَّ قَوْمَكِ حَدِيثُ عَهْدٍ بِجَاهِلِيَّةٍ لَأَمَرْتُ بِالْبَيْتِ فَهُدِمَ فَأَدْخَلْتُ فِيهِ مَا أُخْرِجَ مِنْهُ وَأَلْزَقْتُهُ بِالْأَرْضِ وَجَعَلْتُ لَهُ بَابَيْنِ بَابًا شَرْقِيًّا وَبَابًا غَرْبِيًّا فَإِنَّهُمْ عَجَزُوا عَنْ بُنْيَانِهِ فَبَلَغْتُ بِهِ أَسَاسَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ» قَالَ فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَمَلَ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ عَلَى هَدْمِهِ قَالَ يَزِيدُ وَقَدْ شَهِدْتُ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ حِينَ هَدَمَهُ وَبَنَاهُ وَأَدْخَلَ فِيهِ مِنَ الْحِجْرِ وَرَأَيْتُ أَسَاسَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حِجَارَةً كَأَسْنِمَةِ الْإِبِلِ مُتَلَاحِكَةً

bukhari:1586Bayān b. ʿAmr > Yazīd > Jarīr b. Ḥāzim > Yazīd b. Rūmān > ʿUrwah > ʿĀʾishah

ʿAisha said that the Prophet ﷺ said to her, "O Aisha! Were your nation not close to the Pre-Islamic Period of Ignorance, I would have had the Kaʿba demolished and would have included in it the portion which had been left, and would have made it at a level with the ground and would have made two doors for it, one towards the east and the other towards the west, and then by doing this it would have been built on the foundations laid by Abraham." That was what urged Ibn-Az-Zubair to demolish the Kaʿba. Jazz said, "I saw Ibn-Az-Zubair when he demolished and rebuilt the Kaʿba and included in it a portion of Al-Hijr (the unroofed portion of Kaʿba which is at present in the form of a compound towards the northwest of the Kaʿba). I saw the original foundations of Abraham which were of stones resembling the humps of camels." So Jarir asked Yazid, "Where was the place of those stones?" Jazz said, "I will just now show it to you." So Jarir accompanied Yazid and entered Al-Hijr, and Jazz pointed to a place and said, "Here it is." Jarir said, "It appeared to me about six cubits from Al-Hijr or so."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to Aisha, "O Aisha, if it wasn't for the fact that your people have recently abandoned the practices of Jahiliyyah (pre-Islamic ignorance), I would have ordered for the house to be demolished, then I would have entered it and put back in it what was taken out, and I would have stuck it to the ground, and I would have made two doors for it; one facing east and the other facing west. Indeed, they were not able to rebuild it. And I would have reached the foundations that were laid by Prophet Ibrahim ﷺ ."
