How authentic are the hadiths: "Indeed, Allah Almighty has promised this House that 600,000 will perform Hajj to it every year, and if their number falls short, Allah Almighty will complete it with angels," and "Whoever endures the heat of Mecca, Allah will distance the heat of Hellfire from him," and "Indeed, Allah will resurrect the Black Stone with two eyes with which it sees, and a tongue with which it speaks, testifying on behalf of whoever truly kissed it"? And is the hadith authentic that the Black Stone descended from Paradise white, and the sins of the children of Adam turned it black? And was the Sacred House raised to the fourth heaven during the flood of Noah, peace be upon him? And what is the duty of sincere advice to a preacher who quotes hadiths without verifying their authenticity?

The first Hadith: "Indeed, Allah Almighty has promised this House": Has no origin.

The second Hadith: "Whoever endures the heat of Makkah for an hour of the day": Is false and has no origin.

The third Hadith: "Indeed, Allah will resurrect the Black Stone": Is authentic and established.

The fourth Hadith: "The Black Stone is from Paradise": Is good and authentic (hasan sahih).

Regarding the report of the Kaaba being raised to the fourth heaven during the flood: No continuous (mawṣūl) Hadith has been reported concerning this, rather it has been reported as a paused (mawquf) narration from Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-Aas, and he might have taken it from the People of the Book.

We advise verifying what is narrated from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, as he warned against narrating fabricated Hadith.
