• After lowering the hands, make Istilaam of the Hajar Aswad. A Mu'tamir (one performing<br />
Umrah) will discontinue with the Talbiyah after the first Istillaam.<br />
7. ISTILAAM:<br />
Istilaam is to place both hands on the Hajar Aswad and to kiss it gently thrice, between<br />
the two palms. (Be careful not to harass, punch or hurt anyone in the process.) Hands<br />
should not be placed on the silver ring when kissing the Hajar Aswad.<br />
• If Istilaam is not possible, merely place the hands on the Hajar Aswad. If this is also not<br />
possible, then one should stand diametrically opposite the Hajar Aswad and stretch both<br />
the hands, with the palms facing the Hajar Aswad, (as if one were placing them on it).<br />
Thereafter kiss the hands and commence the Tawaf.<br />
If this is also not possible, then merely say the Takbeer when raising the hands to<br />
the ears and commence the Tawaf.<br />
• It is Punnet to make Istilaam of the Hajar Aswad In all seven circuit, Istilaam is Sunnats<br />
Mu'akkadah (emphasised Sunnah).<br />
8. RAMAL:<br />
In the first three circuits of Tawaal it is Sunnat to make Ramal (for men only).<br />
• Ramal means to walk hastily, take shorter steps, lifting the legs forcefully, keeping the<br />
chest out and moving the shoulders simultaneously.<br />
• One should walk normally in the four remaining circuits.<br />
• Commence the Tawaf by moving towards the door of the Ka'ba (counter-clockwise). Move<br />
around the Ka'ba and the Hateem. It is Mustahab to place the right palm or both the palm<br />
or both the palms on the Rukne Yamaanee during every round.<br />

also permissible. (Women should not raise their voices whilst making Du'aa.)<br />
