The raising of the Maqam stone by Ibrahim (peace be upon him) during the construction of the Ka'bah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is there an authentic hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that the stone on which Ibrahim (peace be upon him) used to stand would rise and descend with him so that he could build the Ka'bah?

Answer:
Yes. If it did not rise and descend with him, what would be the benefit? So this was one of the miracles. This was one of the miracles for Ibrahim (peace and blessings be upon him). And therefore this stone remained a marker among the markers. He prayed at it. Yes.
