If we take the confines of tawaf to be the whole area of [[Masjid al-Haram]] or because of large populations, people have to practice the tawaf in areas more distant from Maqam Ibrahim (a), then the question arises whether it is valid to do it on the second floor of Masjid al-Haram or the two-floor temporary metal constructions in the courtyard of the mosque. Some Shiite and Sunni scholars of fiqh take this tawaf to be valid, and some people believe that if the constructions are higher than the ceiling of the Ka'ba, then it will be invalid. In 1394 S.H. (2015), it was reported that the second floor of Masjid al-Haram and the second floor of the metal construction in the courtyard are higher than the ceiling of the Ka'ba, while the first floor of the metal construction is lower than the ceiling.
