What is the literal meaning of Hajar Al-Aswad?

  • (A) White stone
  • (B) Green stone

The literal meaning of Hajar Al-Aswad is "Black Stone". Let’s break it down. Hajar (الحجر) means "stone", and Al-Aswad (الأسود) means "black". There’s also the religious aspect that says the Black Stone was originally white when it was brought from Paradise and became black because of the sins of humans. But the literal meaning of the term is "Black Stone." So, the name itself says "Black Stone," and the religious aspect says it was originally white and became black because of the sins of humans.
