Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ الْحَجَرُ الْأَسْوَدُ مِنْ الْجَنَّةِ وَكَانَ أَشَدَّ بَيَاضًا مِنْ الثَّلْجِ حَتَّى سَوَّدَتْهُ خَطَايَا أَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ.
English Translation
Rawh told us: Hammad - meaning Ibn Salamah - told us: Ata' ibn al-Sa'ib told us, from Sa'id ibn Jubayr, from Ibn Abbas, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "The Black Stone came down from Paradise, and it was whiter than snow, until the sins of the people of shirk blackened it."
