As
per the Historians.
During
the period of Jahiliyyah (Ignorance), a man and woman from the Yemenite tribe
of Jurhum called Isaf and Na’ilah committed adultery inside the Ka’bah. Allah (ﷻ) turned them into stones. When they were
found the next day, they were carried outside and were set up at the Ka’bah as
a warning. Over time these two stones were worshipped along with the other
idols. One of the stones was placed right next to the Ka’bah; the other one was
set up at the spring of Zamzam. Finally,
the Quraysh ordered that the stone next to the Ka’bah to be carried to the
other one at Zamzam. From then on, people slaughtered their sacrificial animals
at that spot.
According to the traditions of the Meccan
local historian al-Azraqī, the incident happened at the time when the Arab tribe
of the Jurhum ruled over Mecca. The two stones were then removed
from the Kaaba and placed on the Al-Safa and Al-Marwah hills, so that the people
would be warned. Over the course of time, they were then venerated as idols.
Well done! All those who got it right. May
Allah increase our knowledge and bless you all. Ameen Summa Ameen. JazakAllah
