[ Choice of black stone ]

As for his choice of the Black Stone, it is because he sent it down to make it the place of his right hand in the divine pledge of allegiance, since there was nothing in knowledge and worship greater than what was known and what was worshiped with it, for it was created by knowledge and pure worship, which the reality of plants and animals is incapable of, and for this reason there is nothing of it in man. In one sentence, everything in man accepts growth, and it is for plants, just as animals have the ability to act in different directions. Whenever an entity differs from the mineral, the form of the claim becomes confused with its reality. It is a hidden conflict that not every scholar feels. Some of this has been pointed out by Sahl, and what is in the matter is what it is, so I do not know whether He knew and was satisfied with what he mentioned, or what God showed him at that time, more than what he mentioned, and God knows best, so God chose him as the right hand.
