EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ had a vision in which he saw a black person with thin legs plucking stones from the Ka’bah. This vision is significant because it shows that even though this man was not of Arab descent and was not wealthy or powerful, he still had an important role to play in taking care of one of Islam’s holiest sites. It also serves as an example for us to remember that everyone has something valuable to contribute regardless of their background or status. Furthermore, it teaches us that we should be humble and grateful for any task we are given no matter how small it may seem.

The Prophet ﷺ also taught us through this vision that we should take care and maintain our holy places so they can remain beautiful and well-kept for future generations to enjoy. We must remember that these places are sacred and should be treated with respect by all who visit them. Finally, this hadith reminds us to always strive towards excellence in whatever task we undertake so as to bring honor upon ourselves and our faith.
