''' | '''Al_Mustajār''' (Arabic: المستجار) is a part of the western wall of the Ka'ba, approximately 2 meters in length, located between the Yemeni Corner (Rukn Yamani) and the second door of the Ka'ba, which was sealed during the time of Hajjaj ibn Yusuf al-Thaqafi. This section is at the back of the Kaaba, directly opposite the current door of the Ka'ba. | ||
