    The tawaf of Kaba has seven rounds and each of these rounds begins with the hajar-e-aswad and ends with it, and the istilam of the hajar-e-aswad is done at the beginning of each round. So the number of times an istilam is required is seven (7 times).

    This istilam can be done by kissing the hajar-e-aswad or touching it with the hands and then kissing the hands. If the place is crowded, a pilgrim can just raise his hands in its direction or even point a stick or something similar towards it.
