Attachment to the Walls of the Ka'bah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the listeners says: I see some people attaching themselves to the walls of the Ka'bah. He asks: Is there any virtue mentioned regarding this?
Answer:
This is an action performed by an ignorant person, and it is not permissible. The Ka'bah is only faced in prayer and circumambulated. As for attaching oneself to it, it is not permissible, and one does not seek blessing from the Ka'bah, nor does one wipe from it, except for the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone. The Black Stone is touched and kissed because these two corners are on the foundations of Ibrahim (peace be upon him). Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
