What is the ruling on one who proceeds to sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) immediately after tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah) without touching the Black Stone?

Question:
He says: After performing tawaf around the Ka'bah and drinking from Zamzam, I went directly to the sa'y area without touching the Black Stone. Is there anything required of me regarding my 'Umrah (the lesser pilgrimage)?

Answer:
You owe nothing. Touching the Black Stone after the prayer of tawaf is a sunnah (recommended practice). If you are able to do it, do so; otherwise, it is a sunnah, and leaving it out does no harm. The tawaf is valid, if Allah wills.
