Question:
Is it permissible to kiss the Yemeni Corner?
Answer:
No, kissing it is not prescribed. What is prescribed is touching it with the hand. Of the four corners, one is touched but not kissed, which is the Yemeni Corner. One is touched and kissed, or pointed to, which is the Black Stone. The Sham Corner and the Iraqi Corner are neither touched nor kissed, because this was not reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
