Volume 1, Book 3, Number 128:
Narrated Aswad:
Ibn Az-Zubair said to me, "Aisha used to tell you secretly a number of things. What did she tell you
about the Ka'ba?" I replied, "She told me that once the Prophet said, 'O 'Aisha! Had not your people
been still close to the pre-Islamic period of ignorance (infidelity)! I would have dismantled the Ka'ba
and would have made two doors in it; one for entrance and the other for exit." Later on Ibn Az-
Zubair did the same.
