The Shaykh : What is meant by "sin" is a sin, meaning that there is no sin on him for performing tawaf between al-Safa and al-Marwah if he is a pilgrim performing Hajj or 'Umrah.
The questioner : Yes, so they were in the numbers.
The Shaykh : The Companions were hesitant about performing tawaf between them, meaning they feared sin, so Allah revealed this verse, stating that there is no sin on you in performing tawaf between them. Then He said, "And whoever volunteers good," meaning whoever performs obedience for Allah, whether it is obligatory or recommended, then Allah is Appreciative and Knowing. The meaning is that tawaf between them is an act of obedience to Allah, and whoever performs obedience for Allah, then Allah the Exalted is Appreciative and Knowing, and He rewards him for it: a good deed is rewarded with ten times its like, up to seven hundred times, up to many times.
