Answer:
A hadith has come that circumambulation is seven circuits, and one circuit is equivalent to fifty circuits in terms of virtue and reward. Allah knows best. I do not know this hadith, but I know what is established by the authentic hadiths and the Qur'an. The Qur'an did not come with this.
Whoever comes [on the Day of Judgement] with a good deed will have ten times the like thereof [to his credit]مَن جَاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ عَشْرُ أَمْثَالِهَا
[Al-An'am 6:160]
Whoever comes [on the Day of Judgement] with a good deed will have ten times the like thereof [to his credit]مَن جَاءَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ عَشْرُ أَمْثَالِهَا
[Al-An'am 6:160]
, and Allah may multiply the reward more than tenfold, up to seven hundredfold, or even more, according to the intention of the doer, according to the intention of the doer. So the multiplication came as tenfold, and it came as more, up to many multiples that no one knows except Allah. As for specifying fifty, I know nothing about it.
