Oh the Black Stone!
Alhamdulillah I managed to kiss it many times.. it was pretty easy

Oh yeah... amani mentioned about the kabah cloth and someone touching it?

Reminided me of something

I went 5 years ago, practically when I was 10 years old. So a few days after I had performed umrah, I was doing tawaaf with my mum and just out of innocence as a child and you know first time being there and seeing the kabah, I said to my mum that I want to touch the kabah, feel the material of the cloth, what it was like. So my mum said ok so I did touch it and as soon as I did, there was this arab man and I clearly remember he was wearing white thobe, cream bisht red and white scarf, and he said to me to go and it was shirk... and I was like

I only wanted to feel what it was like so I had to go

..
There were loads of people touching and putting their arms on it, and their heads in their arms...basically leaning on the kabah. If that makes sense? and the Arab man was telling them too..
