There is no such thing as worshipping by kissing the black stone commanded by Allah in the Qur’an –
S5:90 – O ye who believe! Intoxicants and gambling, dedication of stones, and divination by arrows, are an abomination, of Satan’s handwork: eschew such abomination, that ye may prosper.
The Black Stone at the Kaabah is just a landmark to start and finish the circumambulation of the Kaabah during pilgrimage –
S5:97 Allah made the Cubicle Sacred House, an asylum of security for men, as also the Sacred Months, the animals for offerings, and the garlands that mark them: That ye may know that Allah hath knowledge of what is in the heavens and on earth and that Allah is well acquainted with all things.
S2:158 Behold! Safa and Marwa are among the Symbols of Allah. So if those who visit the House in the Season or at other times, should compass them round, it is no sin in them. And if any one obey his own impulse to good, be sure that Allah is He Who recognise and know.
Idolising stones can only be found in
man-made books the Hadith and the Holy Bible.
TEACHING FROM THE FAKE HADITH –
The Black Stone will come forth on the Day of Resurrection and will testify in favour of those who touched it in truth.
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said concerning the Stone: “By Allah, Allah will bring it forth on the Day of Resurrection, and it will have two eyes with which it will see and a tongue with which it will speak, and it will testify in favour of those who touched it in sincerity.” (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 961; Ibn Maajah, 294)

THE CLAIMED KISSING THE BLACK STONE WASHED SIN –

THE TRUTH IN STONE FROM THE QURAN
S66:6 – O you who believe! save yourselves and your families from a fire whose fuel is men and stones; over it are angels stern and strong, they do not disobey Allah in what He commands them, and do as they are commanded.
S2:23-24 And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful. But if you do not and you will never be able to then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.
S10:69-70 Say: “Those who invent a lie against Allah will never prosper.” A little enjoyment in this world! And then, to Us will be their return, then shall We make them taste the severest penalty for their blasphemies.
