Book Name:Sarkar ﷺ ki Jawani Ke Waqeaat

attained immense fame among people and Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ blessed him with unique intellect and matchless wisdom. Therefore, when the dispute broke out between the prominent chiefs of Arab at the time of the construction of Holy Ka’bah and embedding Hajar-e-Aswad, and the situation worsened so much that it was close to resulting in killing each other, then at that time, Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم came up with such a solution that prominent intellectual personnel and chiefs bowed their heads down in acceptance to the greatness of the decision of Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. Moreover, all of them proclaimed that by Allah, he is honest and we are pleased over his decision. Let us listen to that parable as well and gather the Madani pearls from it. Therefore:

Different tribes distributed different tasks among them for construction. When the construction reached to the point of placing “Hajar-e-Aswad”, then a major dispute broke out among the tribes.
