The ruling on kissing the Black Stone other than during tawaf
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Yes, the judge
Answer : By Allah, it is not clear to me that he is committing shirk (associating partners with Allah). It is only one of the practices of tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah). As for kissing without tawaf, that has not been reported, so I do not know that it was reported. Yes. We seek help from Allah; they fight over it. It is a matter of tawaf.
