It has been narrated that God's Prophet (a.s) faced the Ka'ba and said
“Bravo to this house. What has increased your status and your respect in the sight of God? I swear to God that a believer is more respected in God's sight than you are since God has only forbidden one thing regarding you, but has forbidden three things regarding a believer: taking his property, shedding his blood, and having being suspicion about him.”
روي أن رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) نظر إلى الكعبة وقال
مرحبا بالبيت، ما أعظمك وما أعظم حرمتك على الله! والله للمؤمن أعظم حرمة منك لأن الله حرم منك واحدة ومن المؤمن ثلاثة: ماله، ودمه، وأن يظن به ظن السوء.
