Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 2|Book 3|Chapter 2
وَ رُوِيَ: «أَنَّ اَلْكَعْبَةَ شَكَتْ إِلَى اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي اَلْفَتْرَةِ بَيْنَ عِيسَى وَ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَوَاتُ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمَا فَقَالَتْ يَا رَبِّ مَا لِي قَلَّ زُوَّارِي مَا لِي قَلَّ عُوَّادِي فَأَوْحَى اَللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلاَلُهُ إِلَيْهَا «أَنِّي مُنْزِلٌ نُوراً جَدِيداً عَلَى قَوْمٍ يَحِنُّونَ إِلَيْكِ كَمَا تَحِنُّ اَلْأَنْعَامُ إِلَى أَوْلاَدِهَا وَ يُزَفُّونَ إِلَيْكِ كَمَا تُزَفُّ اَلنِّسْوَانُ إِلَى أَزْوَاجِهَا» يَعْنِي أُمَّةَ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ ».
It has been narrated: "The Kaaba complained to Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Mighty and Majestic, during the period between Isa عليه السلام and Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, saying, 'O Lord عز وجل, why have my visitors decreased? Why have those who come to me diminished?' Allah سبحانه وتعالى, Glorified and Exalted, revealed to it: 'I will send down a new light upon a people who will long for you as livestock long for their young and who will come to you in procession as brides are escorted to their husbands.' This refers to the Ummah of Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم (peace and blessings be upon him and his family)."
