سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنِ الْحَجَرِ إِذَا لَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ مَسَّهُ وَ كَثُرَ الزِّحَامُ فَقَالَ أَمَّا الشَّيْخُ الْكَبِيرُ وَ الضَّعِيفُ وَ الْمَرِيضُ فَمُرَخَّصٌ وَ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ تَدَعَ مَسَّهُ إِلَّا أَنْ لَا تَجِدَ بُدّاً.

6. Humayd ibn Ziyad has narrated from Sama‘ah from more than one person from Aban ibn ‘Uthman from Muhammad al-Halabiy who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of the Black Stone if one cannot touch it because of the crowd. He (the Imam) said, ‘Old people, the weak ones and those suffering from illness are excused. I do not like your ignoring to touch the Black Stone, unless you cannot find any opportunity to touch it.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
