Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of Fatwa number ( 1775 )
Q1: Is it valid for a pilgrim or one performing 'Umrah to enter the Hajar Isma'il during his tawaf around the House?
A1: It is not permissible for one performing tawaf around the House, whether for Hajj, 'Umrah, or voluntary tawaf, to enter the Hajar Isma'il, and doing so does not suffice him; because tawaf is around the House, and the Hajar is part of the House; as Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Hajj 22:29] , and as Muslim and others narrated, from 'A'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her), who said: Sunan Ibn Majah 651Hasan (Darussalam) , and in another wording she said: I vowed to pray in
the House. He said: . And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
