Hadith 3030

Ubaid ibn Umayr reported: I saw Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) pushing through the crowd at the two corners (Black Stone and Yemeni Corner) in a way I never saw any other Companion do. He said, "If I do so, it is because I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say, 'Touching them erases sins,' and I heard him say, 'Whoever performs Tawaf properly, it is like freeing a slave,' and I heard him say, 'No one lifts a foot or places it down except that Allah erases a sin and records a good deed.'" [Narrated by At-Tirmidhi] In a narration by Ahmad: Sa‘id ibn Al-Musayyab reported that Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him, "You are a strong man—do not push at the Stone and harm the weak. If you find space, touch it; otherwise, face it and say Takbir and Tahlil."
