Question:
He says: What is your opinion regarding the booklets that are read during the tawaf?
Answer:
Adhering to specific supplications in the tawaf or to booklets has no evidence for it. What is required of the Muslim is to strive in supplication without designating specific supplications for each lap, or adhering to supplications he thinks are prescribed specifically for the tawaf; this is incorrect. A person should supplicate with whatever beneficial supplications that are in accordance with the Book and the Sunnah become easy for him, and he should leave these writings and things because there is no evidence for them on one hand, and on the other hand, they distract him from the remembrance of Allah and from the tawaf. He looks at the book, and perhaps he stumbles, and perhaps he obstructs the people performing tawaf in their path. Yes.
