The ruling on circumambulating the Ka'bah during the Friday sermon
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Circumambulating the Sacred Ka'bah during the Friday sermon, whether by a traveler or a resident of Makkah, is that understood?
Answer:
Circumambulation. It is correct to circumambulate the Sacred Ka'bah during the Friday sermon in the Noble Sanctuary, whether the leader is standing or sitting, according to that. Circumambulation is not prevented from people except at the time of the iqamah (second call) for prayer. Otherwise, nothing prevents circumambulation; no one is prevented from circumambulating this House at any hour of night or day. The circumambulators are left to circumambulate until the iqamah is called, then they pray with the people, and then they resume circumambulation. And Allah, Mighty and Majestic, says:[Al-Hajj 22:26] He began with the circumambulators, [and] the bowing and prostration indicate that circumambulation has a special status at the House. It is not prevented except at the time of the iqamah for the obligatory prayer only. Yes.

وَطَهِّرْ بَيْتِيَ لِلطَّائِفِينَ وَالْقَائِمِينَ وَالرُّكَّعِ السُّجُودِ
