It is not binding
on one to recite a particular
supplication in Tawaf or Sa'y, be it in
the first one or the later one. There is
no basis in Shari'ah for the practice of
those who have invented a particular
supplication for each round of Tawaf and
Sa'y. It suffices for one to recite any
supplication which one recalls. Upon
arriving at Rukn Yamaani (the Yemenite
Corner) one should say:بسم
الله
الله
أكبر , (Bismillah,
Allahu Akbar) In the Name of Allah.
Allah is Most-Great" and touch it
with his right hand. However, one should
not kiss it nor should one kiss his
hand. If it is difficult to touch the
Rukn Yamaani, one should continue
performing Tawaf and make no gesture
towards it. Nor should one say:
"Allah is Most-Great" while
facing it. For, to the best of my
knowledge this was not the practice of
the Prophet صلى
الله
عليه
وسلم . It is
desirable to recite the following
supplication while walking between Rukn
Yamaani and Hajr-al-Aswad (the Black
Stone):
While
facing Hajr-al-Aswad (the Black Stone)
one should touch it, kiss it and say:
Allah is Most-Great." If touching
or kissing is difficult, one should make
a gesture towards it whenever facing it
and say: "Allah is
Most-Great." There is nothing wrong
in performing Tawaf from behind the
Maqam Ibrahim (Station of Ibrahim) and
the Zamzam well, especially when there
is much crowding. The whole Al-Masjid-al-Haram
(the Sacred Mosque) is a place for
performing Tawaf. Even if one makes
Tawaf on the structures (roofs) of the
Mosque, it is permissible. However, if
it is possible, it is better to perform
it nearer to the Ka'bah. Again, if it is
possible, due should offer two Rak`at of
prayer after finishing Tawaf at
Ibrahim's Station. If this is not
possible due to overcrowding, one should
perform it in any part of the Mosque. In
the two Rak`at one should recite Surah
Al-Kafirun and Surah Al-Ikhlas after
Surah Al-Fatihah. For this was the
practice of the Prophet
صلى
الله
عليه
وسلم. After
finishing Tawaf one should turn towards
the Hajr-al-Aswad (Black Stone), and if
possible, in accordance with the
Prophet's practice, touch it with the
right hand and then move towards Mount
As- Safa and after mounting it, stand on
it, to perform the Sa'y.
