The Ruling on Seeking Blessing from the Stones of the Ka'bah and Its Coverings
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. Do those who seek blessing from the stones of the Ka'bah and its stones, are they innovators or disbelievers?
Answer:
They are not considered innovators, because this matter was not legislated by Allah or His Messenger. It is not legislated for us to attach ourselves to the Ka'bah, nor to seek blessing from its stones. What was legislated for us is to face it in prayer, and to perform tawaf (circumambulation) around it. This is considered from the crescent.
