Facing the Black Stone at the Takbir in Tawaf

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it a condition for the validity of tawaf that one face the Black Stone with his face at the takbir?

Answer:
He faces it with his body, he faces it with his body, it is not with his face. He may be turned away from it and direct his face toward the Black Stone; that is sufficient. He faces it with his body.
