What is the ruling on one who rubs himself against the curtains of the Ka'bah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: What is the ruling on one who rubs himself against the curtains of the Ka'bah?

Answer:
This is not permissible. The curtains of the Ka'bah were not made to be rubbed against; they were made only as a covering for the Ka'bah. One does not rub against them, and one does not wipe any part of the Ka'bah except where there is evidence for wiping it, namely the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone, because they are on the foundations of Ibrahim (peace be upon him).
