\n A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Nasr, from Abdullah Bin Bukeyr, from Al Halby who said, \n \u2018I said to Abu Abdullah -asws , \u2018Why was kissing the (Black) Stone made to be?\u2019 So he -asws said: \u2018When Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic Took the Covenant of the Children of Adam -as , Called the (Black) Stone from the Paradise, so He -azwj Commanded it and it devoured the Covenant.

Thus, it would testify for the ones who were loyal to it with the loyalty (to the Wilayah)\u2019.
