حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْمُثَنَّى بْنَ الصَّبَّاحِ ، يَقُولُ : حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ ، قَالَ : " طُفْتُ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، فَلَمَّا فَرَغْنَا مِنَ السَّبْعِ رَكَعْنَا فِي دُبُرِ الْكَعْبَةِ ، فَقُلْتُ : أَلَا نَتَعَوَّذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ النَّارِ ، قَالَ : أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ النَّارِ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ مَضَى ، فَاسْتَلَمَ الرُّكْنَ ، ثُمَّ قَامَ بَيْنَ الْحَجَرِ وَالْبَاب : فَأَلْصَقَ صَدْرَهُ وَيَدَيْهِ وَخَدَّهُ إِلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : هَكَذَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَفْعَلُ " .
´‘Amr bin Shu’aib narrated from his father that his grandfather said:` “I performed Tawaf with ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr, and when we had finished seven (circuits), we prayed two Rak’ah at the back of the Ka’bah. I said: ‘Why do you not seek refuge with Allah from the Fire?’ He said: ‘I seek refuge with Allah from the fire.’ Then he went and touched the Corner, then he stood between the (Black) Stone and the door (of the Ka’bah) and clung with his chest, hands and cheek against it. Then he said: ‘I saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) do this.’”

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
➊
The mentioned narration is weak in its chain of transmission, but it is authentically established through the actions of Ibn Abbas (radi Allahu anhu), Urwah ibn Zubayr, and other Companions (radi Allahu anhum).
Shaykh al-Albani (rahimahullah) has, most likely for this reason, declared the mentioned narration to be hasan (good).
For details, see: (al-Silsilah al-Sahihah no. 2138 and Manasik al-Hajj wal-‘Umrah by al-Albani, p. 22)
➋
After performing the two units (rak‘ahs) of circumambulation (tawaf), one may supplicate for oneself and for one’s relatives and friends with any appropriate supplication, just as Shu‘ayb ibn Muhammad (rahimahullah) and Abdullah ibn ‘Amr (radi Allahu anhu) supplicated for protection from the Hellfire.
➌
The area between the Black Stone (Hajar al-Aswad) and the Ka‘bah is called the Multazam.
At this place, it is Sunnah to press one’s chest and face against the structure of the Ka‘bah; however, during times of crowding, one should avoid pushing and shoving.
➍
Clinging to the structure of the Ka‘bah in this manner is Sunnah only at the place of the Multazam.
It is not Sunnah to cling to other parts of the Ka‘bah in this way.

1899. Commentary: This chain of narration is weak. However, it is authentically established from the practice of Ibn Abbas (radi Allahu anhu), Urwah ibn Zubayr, and other Companions (radi Allahu anhum ajma'in). In this way, this narration attains the level of hasan. (Manasik al-Hajj wal-‘Umrah, p. 22, by Allamah al-Albani rahimahullah)
