عن عمرو بن دينار قال أدركت في الكعبة قبل أن تُهدم تمثال عيسى وأمه قال داود فأخبرني بعض الحَجَبة عن مسافع بن شيبة أن النبي ﷺ قال يا شيبة امحُ كل صورة إلا ما تحت يدي قال فرفع يده عن عيسى إبن مريم وأمه

From ‘Amr ibn Dinar, who said: I got to see in the Ka’ba – before they were destroyed – the figures of ‘Isa and his mother. Dawud said: Some of the gatekeepers related to me, from Musafi’ ibn Shayba, that the Prophet (SAW) said: “Oh Shayba! Wipe out all the images except what is under my hand.” Then He lifted his hand off from ‘Isa ibn Maryam and his mother.
