وَ رَوَى صَفْوَانُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلْحَمِيدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ بَابِ اَلصَّفَا فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ أَصْحَابَنَا قَدِ اِخْتَلَفُوا فِيهِ فَبَعْضُهُمْ يَقُولُ اَلَّذِي يَلِي اَلسِّقَايَةَ وَ بَعْضُهُمْ يَقُولُ اَلَّذِي يَسْتَقْبِلُ اَلْحَجَرَ اَلْأَسْوَدَ فَقَالَ «وَ اَلَّذِي يَسْتَقْبِلُ اَلْحَجَرَ وَ اَلَّذِي يَلِي اَلسِّقَايَةَ مُحْدَثٌ صَنَعَهُ دَاوُدُ وَ فَتَحَهُ دَاوُدُ ».
Safwan narrated from Abdul Hamid ibn Sa'd, who said: "I asked Abu Ibrahim عليه السلام about the location of the Safa gate. I mentioned to him that our companions differed regarding it—some say it is the one facing the water station, and others say it is the one facing the Black Stone. Imam عليه السلام said: 'It is the one facing the Black Stone. The one facing the water station is a new addition, created by Dawood and opened by him.'"
