Is it permissible to kiss the Black Stone if one knows that it has perfume on it?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible for me to kiss the Black Stone or wipe it while I am in ihram, if I know that it has perfume on it?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, because you did not intend the perfume; rather, you intended to act in accordance with the Sunnah in touching the Black Stone and kissing it. You acted in accordance with the Sunnah. If you smell the perfume or if the perfume clings to you, there is no blame on you, because you did not intend it. Yes.
