Hajj of Ibrahim and Isma‘il, Their Building the House, Those Who Became in Charge of the House after Them

15ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الْحِجْرِ أَ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ هُوَ أَوْ فِيهِ شَيْ‏ءٌ مِنَ الْبَيْتِ فَقَالَ لا وَلا قُلامَةُ ظُفُرٍ وَلَكِنْ إِسْمَاعِيلُ دَفَنَ أُمَّهُ فِيهِ فَكَرِهَ أَنْ تُوطَأَ فَحَجَّرَ عَلَيْهِ حِجْراً وَفِيهِ قُبُورُ أَنْبِيَاءَ.
15. Muhammad ibn Yahya, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from Fadala ibn Ayyub, from Mu'awiyah ibn 'Ammar who said, "I asked Abu 'Abdullah عليه السلام about Al-Hijr, is it from the House (Kaaba), or is there something (else) from the House in it?’ So he said: ‘No, not even (the size of) a nail clipping. But, Ismail buried his mother in it, and he disliked that it should be trampled upon. So he built a chamber upon it, and therein are the graves of prophets.’
