Comparing Circumambulation on Foot and on a Mount

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is the reward the same for one who performs tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah) on foot and one who performs it on a mount?

Answer:
Walking is undoubtedly better. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) resorted to riding when the people crowded around him and became too numerous. He (peace and blessings be upon him) rode out of necessity. Yes.
