2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Mu‘awiyah ibn Wahab who has said the following: “I heard abu ‘Abd Allah , say, ‘In the year forty-one Mu‘awiyah decided to perform al-Hajj. He sent certain carpenters with tools with orders to the governor of al-Madinah to remove the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, and position it in place of his pulpit in Damascus. When they began to remove the pulpit, a sun eclipse took place and the earth began to shake. They stopped the work and wrote about it to Mu‘awiyah. He wrote back and urged them to do what they were ordered to do before. They then complied with the order and today the pulpit of the Messenger of Allah is the opening that you can see.”
