What is the ruling on pushing and shoving at the Black Stone?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on those who push and shove at the Black Stone, and likewise the women who push the men at the Black Stone?

Answer:
This is forbidden, and pushing and shoving with women is forbidden. Even among men, it is forbidden, because it causes harm to the weak and the poor. So how about with women? It is not permissible to commit a forbidden act for the sake of the recommended practice of touching the Black Stone or kissing it. It is a recommended practice if one is able to do so, but if it leads to crowding and hardship, then this action is not permissible.
