بنى

البَنِيَّةُ البنيه البنية بنية [properly The building, like البِنَاآءُ &c.: but particularly applied to] the Kaabeh; (S, M, K;) because of its nobleness. (M, K.) One says, لَا وَرَبِّ هٰذِهِ البَنِيَّةِ مَا كَانَ كَذَا وَكَذَا [ No, by the Lord of this building (the Kaabeh), such and such thing were not ]: (S, TA:) and this was a common form of oath. (TA.) The Kaabeh is also called بَنِيَّةُ اـِبْرَاهِيمَ [ The building of Abraham ]; because he built it. (TA.)
