The Ruling on Walking and Riding in Sa'y
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Regarding the pilgrim or the one performing 'Umrah, is it permissible for him to walk in some of the circuits and ride in others if he gets tired from walking?
Answer:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with that. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did that in the tawaf around the House. He would perform tawaf on foot, but when the people crowded around him, he would ride (peace and blessings be upon him). Riding out of need is permissible, but walking is better. Yes.
