Walking in a vehicle for one who is able to walk
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he asks: What is the ruling on performing sa'y by riding in a carriage for one who is able to walk?
Answer:
It is permissible. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) rode during tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah) while he was able to walk, so riding during tawaf is permissible, and riding during sa'y is permissible. This is permissible, but if one walks, that is better.
