Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I read in the newspapers about one of the shaykhs that the beginning of the prayer and the placement of the black line
Answer:
Then, the prayer is not about the place; the prayer is at the stone upon which Ibrahim (peace be upon him) stood. Whether it is at the Ka'bah or in another location, one prays at the stone upon which Ibrahim stood when building the Ka'bah. The stone now is in the glass enclosure in the place you know. The prayer at the stone is not at the place where it was originally. No, they tied the prayer to the stone, whether it is adjacent to the Ka'bah or outside the Ka'bah. Yes.
