Sunan Ibn Majah 2945 (Book 25, Hadith 64) #32299
Weeping at the Kaaba

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) wept at the Kaaba and encouraged 'Umar bin Khattab to do the same.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar said: "The Messenger of Allah turned to face the Stone, then he put his lips on it and wept for a long time. Then he turned and saw 'Umar bin Khattab weeping. He said: 'O 'Umar, this is the place where tears should be shed.’"
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِي، يَعْلَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ اسْتَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ الْحَجَرَ ثُمَّ وَضَعَ شَفَتَيْهِ عَلَيْهِ يَبْكِي طَوِيلاً ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِعُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ يَبْكِي فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ يَا عُمَرُ هَاهُنَا تُسْكَبُ الْعَبَرَاتُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's emotional response when he visited the Kaaba in Makkah. He put his lips on it and wept for a long time, showing his deep love and reverence for this sacred place. He then saw that 'Umar bin Khattab was also weeping, so he said to him "O 'Umar, this is the place where tears should be shed." This hadith teaches us that it is appropriate to show our emotions of love and respect for Allah's house by crying out of joy or sorrow. It also encourages us to be mindful of our emotions when visiting holy places like mosques or shrines. We should not just go there as tourists but rather take time to reflect on our relationship with Allah and express our feelings in an appropriate manner.
