A person doubts whether he performed five or six circuits of tawaf or sa'y; what should he do?

The questioner : A person doubts in tawaf or sa'y whether he performed five or six circuits? This is what happened: he did not complete the sa'y or the tawaf, because six is not sufficient. Perhaps the question is about six or seven. What do you say, Fahd?

The Shaykh : During tawaf, if a person doubts during tawaf whether he performed five or six circuits, then if one possibility is more likely in his mind, let him act on it, whether it is five or six. If neither is more likely, let him build on certainty, which is the lesser number. How many is that? Five.
