Question:
The sender, Ayn Alif, asks: What is the ruling on touching or pointing to the southwest corner of the Sacred Ka'bah during the tawaf? And how many takbirs are said there and at the Black Stone? Please give us a ruling, may Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The Yemeni Corner is touched with the hand if it is easy to do so and it is not kissed. If it is not easy, one proceeds and does not point to it. As for the Black Stone, it is the one that is touched and kissed, and it is pointed to if touching it is not possible, even from a distance. One says "Bismillah, Allahu Akbar" when one is opposite the stone and points to it or kisses it or touches it. Yes.
