Hadith 42

(The book) ‘Al Kharaij Wa Al Jaraih’ – It is reported from Abu Al Qasim Ja’far Bin Muhammad Bin Qawlawiya who said, ‘When I arrived at Baghdad in the year (three hundred and) thirty-seven for the Hajj, and it is the year in which Al-Qaramita (see note below) returned the Black Stone to its place from the House (Kabah). The greatest of my concerns was, who would install the Stone, because it has passed in the books Book a story of it having been taken, and it would be installed in its place by the Divine Authority of the time, just as it was during the time of Al-Hajjaj, Zayn Al-Abideen-asws had placed it in its place and it settled.

He (the narrator), ‘The one well known as Ibn Hisham said, ‘When I arrived at Makkah and I was determined to return the Stone, I exerted efforts to build the House (Kabah) generally, I was enabled with it from the being there where I saw the Stone being placed in its place. I got someone to stand with me to prevent the crowd of the people. Every time a person deliberated to place it, it became restless and did not sit straight. A boy of brown colour, handsome face, came and placed it in its place. It sat straight, as if it had not been moved from it, and the voices were raised at that. He-ajfj left exiting from the door. I got up from my place and followed him-ajfj and was pushing the people away from me, rig
