The Two Rak'ahs of Tawaf and the Times of Prohibition
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the ruling on praying the two rak'ahs behind the Maqam of our father Ibrahim (peace be upon him) during the times when voluntary prayers are prohibited?
A: There is no harm in doing so, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Mishkat al-Masabih 1045 It was narrated by Imam Ahmad and the compilers of the four Sunan collections with a sound chain of narration.
Also, because the prayer of tawaf is among the prayers with a specific cause, there is no harm in performing it during the times of prohibition, just as with the greeting of the mosque and the eclipse prayer, based on the aforementioned hadith and other hadiths reported in this chapter. For example, his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying:Sahih al-Bukhari 1044 It is agreed upon that it is authentic, and his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: Sahih al-Bukhari 1167 It was narrated by the two Shaykhs in their Sahihs from the hadith of Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him).
A: There is no harm in doing so, based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
You descendants of ‘Abd Manaf must not prevent anyone who goes round this House and prays at any hour of the night or day he wishes.
يا بني عبد مناف، لا تمنعوا أحدا طاف بهذا البيت وصلى أية ساعة شاء من ليل أو نهارAlso, because the prayer of tawaf is among the prayers with a specific cause, there is no harm in performing it during the times of prohibition, just as with the greeting of the mosque and the eclipse prayer, based on the aforementioned hadith and other hadiths reported in this chapter. For example, his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying:
The sun and the moon are two signs against the signs of Allah; they do not eclipse on the death or life of anyone. So when you see the eclipse, remember Allah and say Takbir, pray
إن الشمس والقمر آيتان من آيات الله، لا ينخسفان لموت أحد ولا لحياته، فإذا رأيتموهما فادعوا الله وصلوا حتى تنكشفIf anyone of you enters a Mosque, he should not sit until he has offered a tworak` at prayer.
إذا دخل أحدكم المسجد فلا يجلس حتى يصلي ركعتين
