The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What is the ruling on kissing the chamber of the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) grave, and likewise seeking blessing by wiping his pulpit?
The Shaykh:
Mosque.
The questioner:
Wiping his pulpit, seeking blessing by wiping the pulpit and kissing the chamber of the pulpit.
The Shaykh:
It is a created thing of clay. One only seeks blessing from what has separated from the body of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), such as hair, a portion of hair, or sweat. This is what one seeks blessing from. As for what has not separated from the body of the Messenger, one does not seek blessing from it. Yes.
