The answer

The about the Prophet's weeping at the Black Stone and his saying to 'Umar, "Here tears are shed," is very weak. Even if it were authentic, it has been said that it was due to the special nature of the place and the descent of mercy, or out of longing for Allah Almighty, and out of fear and shyness.
