Question:
He says: We have heard people say that one who performs fifty circumambulations will not be touched by the Fire. Is this a hadith, and has anything been reported regarding this?
Answer:
I do not know of anything regarding this, but tawaf (circumambulation) of the House is worship, whether it is tawaf for a ritual or voluntary tawaf. Allah the Exalted said: "And let them circumambulate the ancient House." Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Baqarah 2:125] that [Al-Hajj 22:26] tawaf is worship. As for specifying a certain number, I do not know of any evidence for that. Yes.

Purify My House for those who perform Tawaf and those who are staying [there] for worship and those who bow and prostrate [in prayer]."
طَهِّرَا بَيْتِيَ لِلطَّائِفِينَ وَالْعَاكِفِينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِand purify My House for those who perform Tawaf and those who stand [in prayer] and those who bow and prostrate.
وَطَهِّرْ بَيْتِيَ لِلطَّائِفِينَ وَالْقَائِمِينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِ
