"لَوْلا أن النَّاس حَدِيثُ عَهْد بِكُفْر وَلَيسَ عِنْدِي مِنَ النَّفَقَةِ مَا يُقَوِّى عَلَى بُنْيَانِهِ لَكُنْتُ أدْخَلتُ فِيهِ مِنَ الحِجْرِ خَمْسَةَ أذْرُع، وَلَجَعَلتُ لَهَا بَابا لُدْخُلُ النَّاسُ مِنْهُ، وبابا يَخْرُجُ منْهُ".

"The Prophet said: 'Were it not for the fact that the people have recently left disbelief, and that I do not have enough funds to enable me to build it. I would have incorporated five cubits of the Hijr in it, and given it a door through which the people could enter, and another door through which they exit.'"
