Offences and their Expiations 197
Question 10: What is the penalty for the Qārin or the Mufrid who
has missed Ṭawāf-ul-Qudūm
Answer: Though there is no expiation, doing so is the abandonment
of Sunnat-ul-Muakkadaĥ, which is disliked.
Ruling of performing Ṭawāf on the first or second floor of
Masjid-ul-Ḥarām
Question 11: How is it to perform Ṭawāf on the roof of Masjid-ul-
Ḥarām
Answer: The Farḍ Ṭawāf of the Holy Ka’baĥ performed on the roof
of Masjid-ul-Ḥarām is valid provided there is no wall in between
[the Ṭawāf-performing person and the Holy Ka’baĥ]. However, if
there is enough space in the Maṭāf of the ground floor, it is Makrūĥ
in this case to perform Ṭawāf on the roof because climbing or
walking over the roof of the Masjid unnecessarily is Makrūĥ.
Furthermore, the person performing Ṭawāf on the roof of Masjid-ul-
Ḥarām remains away from the Holy Ka’baĥ instead of remaining
closer to it besides facing needless hardships and tiredness. It is
preferable to remain close to the Holy Ka’baĥ during Ṭawāf and it is
forbidden to inflict needless hardship on oneself. However, if there
is no space on the ground floor or one cannot delay performing
Ṭawāf due to some Shar’ī reason, the Ṭawāf performed on the roof
is permissible without it being Makrūĥ, i.e. there is no harm in it in
this case. (Māĥnāmaĥ Ashrafiyaĥ, June 2005, 11th Fiqĥī Seminar, pp. 14)
