The people asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What is the matter that at first you commanded him to perform ablution and then remained silent?"

He replied that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: When I entered the House of Allah (the Ka'bah), I saw two ram's horns there. I forgot to tell you to cover them, so now go and cover them, because it is not appropriate for anything to be in the House of Allah that may distract a worshipper. The narrator says that both horns remained in the Ka'bah, and when the House of Allah caught fire, they too were burnt.
