Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ أَنَّ مُعَاوِيَةَ حَجَّ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى شَيْبَةَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ أَنْ افْتَحْ بَابَ الْكَعْبَةِ فَقَالَ عَلَيَّ بِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ فَجَاءَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ لَهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ هَلْ بَلَغَكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى فِي الْكَعْبَةِ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْكَعْبَةَ فَتَأَخَّرَ خُرُوجُهُ فَوَجَدْتُ شَيْئًا فَذَهَبْتُ ثُمَّ جِئْتُ سَرِيعًا فَوَجَدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَارِجًا فَسَأَلْتُ بِلَالَ بْنَ رَبَاحٍ هَلْ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْكَعْبَةِ قَالَ نَعَمْ رَكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ بَيْنَ السَّارِيَتَيْنِ.
English Translation
Yahya bin Sa'id narrated to us, from as-Sa'ib bin Umar: Ibn Abi Mulaykah narrated to me, that Mu'awiyah performed the Hajj and sent word to Shaybah bin Uthman to open the door of the Ka'bah, and said: Bring me Abdullah bin Umar. Ibn Umar came, and Mu'awiyah said to him: Has it reached you that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, prayed inside the Ka'bah? He said: Yes — the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, entered the Ka'bah, and his coming out was delayed. I attended to something and went off, then came back quickly and found the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, coming out. I asked Bilal bin Rabah whether the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, had prayed inside the Ka'bah. He said: Yes, he performed two rak'ahs between the two pillars.
