A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from al-Hassan ibn al-Nu’man from Ibrahim ibn Sinan from abu Maryam who has said the following: “I once was performing Tawaf with abu Ja‘far (a.s.), and in every Tawaf on reaching al- Yemaniy corner he would touch it and say, ‘O Lord, forgive and turn to me so I repent and protect me so I will not repeat.’” NOTE:This Hadith is best explained through the Fatwas.

15. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ya’qub ibn Yazid from abu al-Faraj al-Sindiy who has said the following: “I once was performing Tawaf along with abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), and he said, ‘Which of these has a greater importance?’ I then said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause; you know better than I do.’ He (the Imam) repeated his question to me. I then said, ‘Inside the House has more importance.’ He (the Imam) then said, ‘Al-Yemaniy corner is a door of the doors of paradise which is open for the Shi`a of the family of Muhammad, ‘Alayhim al-Salam, and is closed to others. Whoever of the believing people prays near this (corner), his prayer climbs up until it attaches to the Throne. There is no barrier between it (prayer) and Allah.’”

16. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and Muhammad Isma‘il from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hafs ibn al-Bakhtariy who has said the following: “In this place, - when passing al-Yemaniy corner -, there is an angel who is given the hearing of the inhabitants of earth; thus, whoever says, ‘O Allah, grant salawat (favors and compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause)’ when reaching this place he (the angel) conveys it to him (the Messenger of Allah).”’

17. Al-Husayn from Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla’ ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Ali or others from Hammad ibn ‘Uthaman who has said the following: “In Makkah there was a man of the friends of Banu ‘Umayyah called ibn abu ‘Awanah who had hostility. Whenever abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), or any shaykh from the family of Muhammad (SAW), entered Makkah, he mocked. He came to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), during his performing Tawaf and said, ‘O abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), what do you say about touching the Black Stone?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘The Messenger of Allah touched it.’ He said, ‘But I do not see you touching it.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘I do not like to disturb weak people or be disturbed.’ He then said, ‘But you believe that the Messenger of Allah would touch it.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, but when people would see the Messenger of Allah they recognize his rights and in my case they do not recognize it.’”
