The ruling on forbidding evil during tawaf regarding those who seek blessing from the Ka'bah and the Black Stone

The questioner : Thank you.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : May Allah keep you safe, O Shaykh. Is it prescribed to forbid evil to someone who, for example, rubs himself against the Ka'bah or similar things while saying?

The Shaykh : Yes, provided that it does not lead to disrupting the tawaf, such as when there are many people and if one were to advise each person, the purpose of the tawaf would be missed. That is one point. The second point is that it must be likely that the pilgrim will accept the advice, because some pilgrims never accept it. Perhaps he will say, "You are a Wahhabi," yes, just as they said that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was a Wahhabi, yes. The Hanafis. The Messenger was a Hanifi with a yaa. In any case, if it does not lead to disrupting the purpose of the tawaf, may Allah reward you with good. This is beneficial, because forbidding evil is a form of worship of one's Lord.
