(a) Sayyiduna Abu al-Tufayl (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) performed Hajj, and whichever corner of the House he came to, he would touch it. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to touch only the Yamani Corner and the Black Stone." Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "None of its corners is to be abandoned."
(b) Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: No one left touching those two out of abandoning the House of Allah; rather, they touched what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) touched and refrained from what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) refrained from.
