During Tawaaf man must do two things:
1- Discover the right shoulder (idtibaa ') from the
beginning of tawaaf until the end. This is done by placing half of the rida
'(upper garment) under the armpit and the ends of the rida' on the right
shoulder. When the pilgrim ends the tawaaf, he should put his rida 'in the
place where he was before the tawaaf, because the time to use it with a bare
shoulder is only during the tawaaf Cheap Umrah Deals UK.
2- The raml in the first three circuits only. Raml means
fast walking with short steps. In the last four circuits there is no raml,
rather, the pilgrim must walk as he usually does.
When the pilgrim has completed the seven circuits of tawaaf,
he should cover his shoulder and then go to the Ibraahim Station (Maqaam
Ibraahim) and recite the words (interpretation of the meaning):
"Remember when we made The House [the Ka'bah] a place
of meeting and security for men. Take the seat of Abraham as an oratory [pray
behind the stone on which the Prophet Abraham stood while building the Ka'bah].
And we inspired Abraham and Ishmael to purify My House for those who
circumambulate it, retire and pray in it. "
[al-Baqarah 2: 125]
Then he should pray two rak'ats behind the Station; in the
first rak'ah after reciting al-Faatihah he should recite Yaa ayyaha'l-kaafirun
(Surat al-Kaafirun 109) and in the second Qul Huwa Allaahu ahad (Surat
al-Ijlaas 112). Then when you have finished the prayer you should go to the
Black Rock and touch it if you can. It is prescribed at this point that only
touch it; If you can not do it then you must walk away and not point it out.
