What is the ruling on clinging to the door of the Ka'bah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Peace be upon you. What is the ruling on clinging to the door that is on the Ka'bah?

Answer:
There is no harm in clinging to the Multazam. The Multazam is the area between the door and the Black Stone, between the Black Stone and the door; this is the Multazam. If a person stands in it, or places his hands on the Ka'bah and supplicates to Allah the Exalted, this is reported from the Salaf and the Companions, so there is no harm in that. As for the door itself, one does not cling to it. Yes.
