Saudi: No appointments to kiss Black Stone

Saudi Arabia announced that there has been no service added on the Eatmarna application to book an appointment to kiss the Black Stone (Al-Hajar Al-Aswad).

The prospect of allowing the ritual of kissing the Black Stone is subject to the regulations of the General Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques. There will also be no permission to enter inside the Holy Kaaba.

Earlier, the Kingdom announced that there would be options on the Eatmarna and Tawakkalna applications to book an appointment for kissing the Black Stone, touching the Yemeni Corner (Al-Rukn Al-Yamaani), and performing prayer at Hijr Ismail, a portion of which is considered as part of the Holy Kaaba.
