Question:
Some people call it the Stone of Isma'il. Is the naming "Hijr Isma'il" correct?
Answer:
I do not know the reason for it, I do not know the reason for it. It is only called al-Hatim because it was cut off from the Ka'bah. When Quraysh wanted to build the Ka'bah, and they did not build it except with lawful, good money, when they gathered good, lawful money to build the Ka'bah, this money was not sufficient to renovate the Ka'bah on the foundations of Ibrahim. So they cut off this portion from it and built what they were able to. This is the reason for its naming al-Hatim, and it is part of the Ka'bah. It is not permissible to pray the obligatory prayer in it. And it is not permissible to enter the tawaf with it. Yes.
