Ibn Juraij reported: I said to Ata: Have you heard Ibn Abbas saying: You have been commanded to observe circumambulation, and not commanded to enter it (the Ka’bah)? He (Ata) said: He ( Ibn Abbas (RA) ) (at the same time) did not forbid entrance into it. I, however, heard him saying: Usama bin Zaid informed me that when Allahs Apostle ﷺ entered the House, he supplicated in all sides of it; and he did not observe prayer therein till he came out, and as he came out he observed two rakahs in front of the House, and said: This is your Qibla. I said to him: What is meant by its sides? Does that mean its corners? He said: (In all sides and nooks of the House) there is Qibla.
