The manner of saying takbir at the Black Stone

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
After this, a message was received by the program from Jeddah, sent by the listener Ha'in Ghayl. He asks a number of questions, one of which says: How is the takbir performed at the Black Stone? Is it three times or once? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
When a person passes by the Black Stone while performing tawaf, or at the beginning of tawaf, if it is easy for him to face it and touch it with his hand and say Allahu Akbar, this is a recommended practice. If it is not easy for him to kiss it, he should touch it with his hand, meaning he wipes it with his hand and then kisses his hand. If neither of these is possible for him due to the crowd, neither kissing nor touching, then when he is opposite it, he says takbir. He says it once, and if he repeats it, there is no harm. If he repeats the takbir, there is no harm.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
