أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ ، عَنْ الْأَشْعَثِ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ ، عَنْ الْأَسْوَدِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الْحَجَرِ : أَمِنَ الْبَيْتِ هُوَ؟.
قَالَ : نَعَمْ.
قُلْتُ : فَمَا لَهُمْ لَمْ يُدْخِلُوهُ فِي الْبَيْتِ ؟ فَقَالَ : " إِنَّ قَوْمَكِ قَصَّرَتْ بِهِمْ النَّفَقَةُ ".
قُلْتُ : فَمَا شَأْنُ بَابِهِ مُرْتَفِعًا؟ قَالَ : " فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ قَوْمُكِ لِيُدْخِلُوا مَنْ شَاءُوا وَيَمْنَعُوا مَنْ شَاءُوا،وَلَوْلَا أَنَّ قَوْمَكِ حَدِيثُ عَهْدٍ بِجَاهِلِيَّةٍ فَأَخَافُ أَنْ تُنْكِرَ قُلُوبُهُمْ، لَعَمَدْتُ إِلَى الْحِجْرِ فَجَعَلْتُهُ فِي الْبَيْتِ وَأَلْزَقْتُ بَابَهُ بِالْأَرْضِ "

Muhammad bin Issa told us, Abu Al-Ahwas told us, on the authority of Al-Ash’ath bin Sulaym, on the authority of Al-Aswad, on the authority of Aisha, she said: I asked The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said about the stone: Is it safe from the House?
He said: Yes.
I said: What is the matter with them that they did not bring him into the house? He said: “Your people have been short on spending.”
I said: What about his door being raised? He said: “Your people did that in order to let in whomever they wanted and prevent whomever they wanted, and had it not been that your people are recent in the era of ignorance, I fear that you will deny it.” Their hearts, I would have turned to the stone and placed it in the house and stuck its door to the ground.”
