Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it true that the Black Stone is called the Stone of Isma'il (peace be upon him) and that he is buried in it?
Answer:
This is invalid, this is invalid. It is part of the Ka'bah, and no one is buried in it. But the people of graves and the worshippers of graves spread these rumors. They say that the Ka'bah is built on graves so that they can justify the worship of graves. All of this is invalid, and may Allah purify His House from these lies. There are no graves in the Black Stone or in the Ka'bah. Yes.
