Tawaf

Entering the Masjid

Enter Masjid Al-Haram with your right foot and recite:

اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَسَلِّم، اللَّهُمَّ افْتَحْ لِي أَبْوَابَ رَحْمَتِكَ.

O Allāh, extol Muhammad and send peace upon him. O Allāh open the doors of your mercy for me

Start circuit at the Hajar al-Aswad. Kiss, touch, or point from afar saying "Allahu Akbar".

اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ

Allāh is the Greatest

Take the station of Ibrāhīm as a place of prayer

Zamzam

Drink Zamzam water and pour some over your head.

Sa'i

Approaching Safa

Approach Safa and at the foot of Safā recite the following (only on this occasion) Quran 2:158.

۞ إِنَّ ٱلصَّفَا وَٱلْمَرْوَةَ مِن شَعَآئِرِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ فَمَنْ حَجَّ ٱلْبَيْتَ أَوِ ٱعْتَمَرَ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْهِ أَن يَطَّوَّفَ بِهِمَا ۚ وَمَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيْرًۭا فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَاكِرٌ عَلِيمٌ

Verily! As-Safâ and Al-Marwah (two mountains in Makkah) are of the Symbols of Allâh. So it is not a sin on him who performs Hajj or ‘Umrah (pilgrimage) of the House (the Ka‘bah at Makkah) to perform the going (Tawâf) between them (As-Safâ and Al-Marwah).1 And whoever does good voluntarily, then verily, Allâh is All-Recogniser, All-Knower.

Safa Dhikr

Each time you are on Safā, face the Kaʿbah and recite 3 times with hands raised

اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لاَ إِلَةَ إِلاَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيْكَ لَهُ • لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ يُحْ وَيُمِيْتُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَءٍ قَدِيْر لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيْكَ لَه أَنْجَزَ وَعْدَهُ وَنَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ وَهَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ

llāh is the Greatest, Allāh is the Greatest, Allāh is the Greatest. There is none worthy of worship except Allāh alone, without partner. To Him belongs all sovereignty and all praise. He alone gives life and death—and He is All-Powerful over everything. There is none worthy of worship except Allāh alone, without partner. He has fulfilled His promise, aided His servant, He alone has defeated the confederates.

Walk to Marwah

Walk towards Marwah. Green Lights = Run (Men). On hill of Marwah recite upon it the same as you did at Safā.

اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لاَ إِلَةَ إِلاَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيْكَ لَهُ • لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ يُحْ وَيُمِيْتُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَءٍ قَدِيْر لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيْكَ لَه أَنْجَزَ وَعْدَهُ وَنَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ وَهَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ

llāh is the Greatest, Allāh is the Greatest, Allāh is the Greatest. There is none worthy of worship except Allāh alone, without partner. To Him belongs all sovereignty and all praise. He alone gives life and death—and He is All-Powerful over everything. There is none worthy of worship except Allāh alone, without partner. He has fulfilled His promise, aided His servant, He alone has defeated the confederates.

Return to Safā

Then return to Safā and recite the supplications again (second circuit). Continue for seven circuits, finishing at Marwah. Do not recite it on the last visit to Marwah.

Exit the Masjid

You may now exit the Masjid al-Harām (after completing seven circuits) with your left foot, reciting

اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ سَلِّم اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِك

O Allāh, extol Muhammad, send peace and blessings upon him. O Allāh, indeed I ask You from Your Favour.
