Question:
What is the ruling on clinging to the curtains of the Ka'bah?
Answer:
It is not prescribed. What is prescribed for us is tawaf (circumambulation) of the Ka'bah, praying toward it, facing it, touching the Black Stone and kissing it, and touching the Yemeni Corner. This is what is prescribed for us. As for clinging to the Ka'bah or its curtains, or rubbing against it, Allah has not prescribed this for us, and doing so is a bid'ah (religious innovation). Yes.
