People have asked about the significance of Muslims kissing or touching the black stone.
This is a general fatwa about what is permitted or what the actions of the Prophet Muhammad, pbuh,
were regarding the permissibility and/or reward for kissing or touching the black stone, or to point at it with one's hand, or touching it with a stick or a cane, and other issues to do with the rituals during the hajj and umrah with regard to the Black Stone and also the Yamani corner.
This is an enlightening reminder and concise fatwa by Sheikh ul Islam Muhammad Salih, of Mecca.
May Allah shower His blessings on the Sheikh and his relatives and all the good people.
I made an error due to forgetfulness, but I corrected that as soon as I realized what the mistake was; the fact that the sins are forgiven is true, but the Stone doesn't remove them from the person, it is the act of submitting to the Creator of the Universe with sincere obedience and submission and asking for forgiveness, by repenting, during the hajj or umrah, and when touching the Black Stone or pointing to it, or if one is able to kiss it, doing that with a pure heart, seeking Allah [SWT]'s mercy.
