A Woman Kissing the Black Stone Amidst the Crowds

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the sisters is asking: Is it obligatory for a woman to kiss the Black Stone despite the crowd?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible for her, nor for a man, to crowd around the Black Stone. Rather, if he is able to kiss it, he should kiss it. If he is not able to do so, he should touch it with his right hand. He should touch it with his right hand. If he is unable to do either of these, he should point to it when he is opposite it, and this is sufficient in every lap. Yes.
