Jarīr ibn Ḥāzim narrated from Yaʿlā ibn Ḥakīm, who said:
Saʿīd ibn Jubayr remarked, “I have never seen anyone show greater reverence for the sanctity of this House or care for it more than the people of Basra. One night I saw a young woman clinging to the curtains of the Kaʿbah, calling upon her Lord, imploring, and weeping until she died.”
