Question:
We hope you will clarify which is better for the pilgrim and the one performing 'Umrah: riding or walking in tawaf and sa'y?
Answer:
The default is walking, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions did. If one needs to ride, he rides in tawaf and sa'y, and there is no blame on him for that. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) rode on some occasions. If one needs to ride, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
