'''Ṭawāf''' (Arabic:{{ia| الطواف}}) consists in seven turns of circumambulation around the [[Ka'ba]], which is one of the obligatory rituals of [[hajj]] and [['umra]]. Each turn of this circumambulation is called a "shawt". All kinds of hajj and 'umra have two tawafs: tawaf al-ziyarah (tawaf of pilgrimage) and [[tawaf al-nisa']] (tawaf of women), except [['umrat al-tamattu']] that does not involve tawaf al-nisa'. When one does not wear [[ihram]], they can also practice [[Mustahab]] tawafs. After each tawaf, two [[rak'a]]s of [[prayer]]s should be performed behind [[Maqam Ibrahim (a)]]. | '''Ṭawāf''' (Arabic:{{ia| الطواف}}) consists in seven turns of circumambulation around the [[Ka'ba]], which is one of the obligatory rituals of [[hajj]] and [['umra]].

There is disagreement among scholars of [[fiqh]] about the confines of the tawaf. Some people take it to be [[Maqam Ibrahim]] which is 13 meters from the Ka'ba, and some take it to include the whole area of [[Masjid al-Haram]]. | There is disagreement among scholars of [[fiqh]] about the confines of the tawaf.

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. | 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. | ||
