5. To raise one's hands on first sight of the Ka'bah and say: "Allahumma zid hadhal bayti tashrifan wa ta 'zeeman wa
takriman wa muhabatan wa zid min sharfihi wa karamihi mimman hajjahu au 'itamarahu tashrifan wa takriman wa
ta'zeeman wa birran (O Allah! increase this House's honor, dignity, respect and grant all those who come to it for Hajj
or 'Umrah honor, dignity, respect and righteousness.)" And say, "Allahumma antas salam, wa minkas salam,
fahayyina rabbana bis-salam (O Allah! You are the Peace, from You is the Peace. O Allah! Greet us with the Peace)."
6. Then head to the Black Stone and kiss it quietly. If kissing is not possible, then one may touch it with a hand and kiss
the hand, and if even this is not possible then one may just point to it with a hand.
7. Then begin tawaf (circumambulation) starting from the Black Stone.
8. One does not have to perform salutation prayer to the Sacred Mosque. because tawafof Ka'bah is its salutation. If,
however, it is time for the prescribed daily prayers, then one must offer them with the congregation. The Prophet
(peace be upon him) said, "When a prescribed prayer is in progress then no other prayer except the prescribed prayer
is valid." Similarly, if one is afraid to miss a prescribed prayer then one must offer it first before anything else.

Passing in Front of Worshippers in the Sacred Mosque
It is permissible to offer prayer in the Sacred Mosque while the people, male and female, pass in front of the
worshipper. There is no harm in it, and it is one of the special characteristics of the Sacred Mosque. Kathir
bin Kathir bin Al-Mutalib bin Wida'ah reported from some of his family members and from his grandfather
that he said: "I saw the Prophet (peace be upon him) offering prayer in the Sacred Mosque in the area
adjacent to Bani Sahm while people passed in front of him but he did not place any sutrah (protection) in
front of him." Suffiyan bin 'Uyainah said, "There was no partition between him and the Ka'bah." (Reported
by Abu Daw ud Nasa+i, and Ibn Majah)

Three most excellent mosques
Jabir reports that the Messenger of Allah said: "Prayer in the inviolable mosque [in Makkah] is like 100,000 prayers
[elsewhere]. And prayers in my mosque [in Medinah] is like one thousand prayers [elsewhere]. And a prayer in Bait al-Maqdis
[in Jerusalem] is like five hundred prayers [elsewhere]. This is related by alBaihaqi, and as-Sayuti says it is hasan.
Ahmad records that the Messenger of Allah said: "Offering salah in my mosque is better than one thousand prayers
elsewhere, save for those offered in the inviolable mosque. And salah in the inviolable mosque is better than salah in my
mosque by one hundred prayers."
The Prophet said: "One should not undertake a journey, save to three mosques: the inviolable mosque [in Makkah], my
mosque here [in Medinah], and Masjid al-Aqsa [in Jerusalem]." This is related by the group.

Kinds of Tawaf
1. Tawafal Qudum (Arrival Circumambulation).
2. Tawafal Ifada (Return from Mina Circumambulation).
3. Tawafal Wida' (Farewell Circumambulation). We will deal with it separately at its place.
4. Tawafat Tatawwu' (Supererogatory Circumambulation).
The pilgrim should make full use of his stay at Makkah performing as much supererogatory tauaf and prayers in the Sacred
Mosque as possible. A prayer in it is better than a hundred thousand prayers in any other mosque. In a supererogatory tawaf
one may not uncover one's shoulder or jog. It is sunnah to perform a tawaf of Ka'bah as a salutation to the Sacred Mosque
upon entering it, unlike other mosques where on entering them a two rakah prayer is offered as a salutation to the mosque.
