The answer

The hadith about raising hands upon seeing the Kaaba and supplicating, "O Allah, increase this House in honor, veneration, and reverence..." is weak and Mu'dal (a hadith in which two or more consecutive narrators are missing from the chain). What is authentically established from the Prophet, peace be upon him, upon seeing the Kaaba from Safa, is to say Allahu Akbar (God is Most Great), to praise Allah, and to supplicate with whatever one wishes, without a specific supplication.
