أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْبَيْتَ وَمَعَهُ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ وَأُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ وَبِلَالٌ فَأَجَافُوا عَلَيْهِمْ الْبَابَ فَمَکَثَ فِيهِ مَا شَائَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ کَانَ أَوَّلُ مَنْ لَقِيتُ بِلَالًا قُلْتُ أَيْنَ صَلَّی النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَا بَيْنَ الْأُسْطُوَانَتَيْنِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 2913
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Umar said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم entered the House, accompanied by Al-Fadi bin ‘Abbas, Usamah bin Zaid, ‘Uthman bin Talhah and Bilal. They shut the door, and he stayed there for as long as Allah willed, then he came out.” Ibn ‘Umar said: “The first one whom I met was Bilal, and I said: ‘Where did the Prophet pray?’ He said: ‘Between the two columns.” (Sahih)
