The area between Hajar al-Aswad and the Kaaba Door is called Multazam. It is about two meters wide, and this is the place where du’as (prayers) are accepted.
Multazam is an area where duas are accepted. It is a sunnah of Prophet Muhammad to hold onto the wall of the Kaaba so that the cheek, chest and arms are against the wall. It is reported that Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) once performed a tawaf, performed a salah, and then kissed the Hajar al-Aswad. After that, he stood between Hajar al-Aswad and the door of the Ka’ba in such a way that his cheek, chest and arms were against the wall. Then he said: “This is what I saw Rasulullah (saw) do.”
FEED THE POOR
Feeding the poor and needy is an act that draws us closer to Allah. We earn His forgiveness, mercies and blessings through this act of charity.
“Anyone who looks after and works for a widow and a poor person is like a warrior fighting for Allah?s cause, or like a person who fasts during the day and prays all night. (Bukhari)
Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: “Signs of acceptance of any dua between Hajar al-Aswad and the door of the Kaaba will surely be visible.”
