Narrated Az-Zubair bin 'Arabi: A man asked Ibn `Umar about the touching of the Black Stone. Ibn `Umar said, I saw Allah's Apostle touching and kissing it. The questioner said, But if there were a throng (much rush) round the Ka`ba and the people overpowered me, (what would I do?) He replied angrily, Stay in Yemen (as that man was from Yemen). I saw Allah's Apostle touching and kissing it.
