Question:
Is it permissible to kiss the Black Stone with the intention of seeking healing?
Answer:
This has not been reported. It has not been reported that one kisses it for the sake of healing. Rather, it is kissed for the sake of beginning the tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah), as it is one of the rituals of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), among the rituals. It is not kissed for the sake of tabarruk (seeking blessing from a thing or person), or seeking healing, or anything similar to that. Yes.
