What is speciality or importance of Hajar Aswad? Why the people want to kiss it at the pilgrim or umroh time although sometimes without caring safety self and other or even hurt another person?
Rasulullah Muhammad SAW (May Allah Bless dan Give Him Peace) explained, hajar aswad was a stone that was demoted by Allah SWT (The Almighty and Most Worthy of Praise) from the heaven which was at the first time its color was whiter than milk, but sins of mankind changed it be black.
Ibnu Abbas Ra, said : Rasulullah SAW said that hajar aswad go down from heaven (jannah) colored whiter than milk. And then, sins of people that changed it to be reddish black, presented in the corner of south ka'bah. It was height approximately 1,10 m from top soil and patch in the ka'bah wall.
Ibnu Abbas Ra, said : Rasulullah SAW said hajar aswad initially shaped stone with diameter around 30 cm, caused various event that befall it. And now, hajar aswad that was remained was eight of a little stone like grains as big as that was surrounded by silver frame, but not all that found at silver frame was hajar aswad.
Items of hajar aswad was in the middle of frame. This items that touched and kissed by jamaah of pilgrim. Hajar aswad always glorified since jahiliyah time up to islam comes.
Rasulullah SAW confirmed that he will be witness at doomsday for the man who touched hajar aswad. Ibnu Abbas Ra, told that Rasulullah SAW said, Allah will arise this stone on disaster with has two eyes to see and tongue to speak that will be witness for man who touched it truly (HR. Ahmad Tirmizi, Ibnu Majah, Ibnu Khuzaimah and Hakim).
In pilgrim and umroh activty, first doing that must be done by one who want to do thawaf is kiss or touch or give hint from a distance to hajar aswad.
Jabir bin Abdullah told, when Rasulullah SAW reached Makkah, he visited hajar aswad and touched it by hand and then walked to its right. he ran with a little running as much as three rotations and walked four rotations (HR. Bukhori).
And the prophet Muhammad SAW also kiss that stone at pilgrim time and then followed by the people. Umar Ra, told that he came to hajar aswad and kissed it, and then told 'I knowed that you (hajar aswad) were just stone that didn't endangered and give benefit. And if I didn't Rasulullah Muhammad SAW kissed you, so i would not kiss you' (HR. Bukhori Muslim).
If the person can not kiss it in pilgrim or umroh trip, he may touch it by hand or by a thing, and than kiss a hand or that thing.
Kissing hajar aswad in pilgrim or umroh trip is a sunnah, while hit another person is prohibited. So, don't do prohibited for get sunnah. Hence, for jamaah of pilgrim don't forced to kiss or touch hajar aswad if the condition does not make possible. Even less, if until hurt and endanger another person. That is prohibited deed that will damage pilgrim religious service fullness.
Wallahu a’lam bish shawab.
