The ruling on the two rak'ahs of greeting the mosque in the Makkah Haram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
When entering the Haram, are we obligated to perform the greeting of the mosque?
Answer:
It is better to begin with tawaf, then pray two rak'ahs. If that is not feasible, or if a person feels some laziness regarding tawaf, he should pray two rak'ahs as the greeting of the mosque. If he begins with tawaf, that is better. If he prays two rak'ahs and leaves off the voluntary tawaf, there is no harm.
As for one who has come for 'Umrah or Hajj, the emphasized sunnah is to begin with tawaf if it is feasible. If it is not feasible, he should pray two rak'ahs and then perform tawaf afterwards when a suitable time becomes available. Yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good and do you good.
