This holy stone is the eastern cornerstone of the Kaaba, the ancient stone building towards which all Muslims pray. Many Muslims believe that the stone (originally white but now black from absorbing the sins of man) fell from heaven during the time of Adam and Eve.

"I would wanted to touch it, but although tawaf area was not that much of a crowd, queue was very long for men and women were not queued so we decided not follow and we just only waved at it from a distance as prophet says."
"I have Stayed here in Three Hotels in the Past two years they were very good. I do Not Like the Location of this Tower.
The Mall and the food court are a very good combination of Local Arab/Desi cuisines and World wide chains like Burger King, StarBucks, KFC, Hardees etc"
"This the holiest place in the Muslim World and anybody who visited this place experience
A form of inner peace and calm and tranquility ,which have never transcend before.
The place is the centre of Muslim world and touching the purify black stone is one of the
Religious rituals if its in your r..."each,don't push anybody or fight to get near it ,if it happens
You are luck to touch it then do it. Normally during off peak season is possible.
I prayed to all Muslims to get a chance to come to this holy place at list once in their lifetime
Amen.
