Having
completed his seven circlings, he moves to the station of Ibrahim reciting
the following verse:-
“And take you (people) the Maqam (place) of [Ibraham as a place of prayer''.
[Sura 2, verse 125]. Then he performs two rak'as, preferably behind the
Station of Ibrahim - In the first rak'a he recites Sura 109 (Al-Kafirun, in
the second Sura 112 (Al-Ikhlas).
8-
After praying behind the Station of Ibrahim, he leaves for Safa (hill) and
when he approaches Safa, he recites the verse:
“Verily, As-Safa and Al-Marwah (two mountains in Makkah) are of the Symbols
of Allah. So it is not a sin on him who performs Hajj or ‘Umrah (pilgrimage)
of the House (the Ka`bah at Makkah) to perform the going (Tawaf) between
them (As-Safa and Al-Marwah). And whoever does good voluntarily, then
verily, Allah is All-Reccogniser, All-Knower.” [Sura 2, Verse 158] and
says: “I begin from which Allah has begun”.
Then he climbs Safa, till he sees the Ka'ba and facing it
raising his hands and say whatever prayer he likes. The prayer of Prophet
Muhammad when he climbed Safa was as follows:
“There is no God but Allah, He has no partner. Sovereignty
belongs to Him and praise too, He fulfilled his promise, helped His servant
and routed the hosts, all alone". Then he descends from Safa walking, and
when he reaches the Green Posts, he is recommended to move quickly between
the two Green Posts then he walks normally till he reaches Marwa. As he
climbs the hill of Marwah, he prays and praises to Him, with his face
towards the Ka'aba as he did on Safa. He goes back to Safa and carries on
until he completes seven courses. His coming from Safa and going to Marwa is
considered to be one course. He may say what ever he likes: Du'a, Quraan
etc..
When he completes Sa'ee seven courses, he should shave or cut
part (shorten) the hair on his head. Women are to cut only a finger tip's
length from their hair.
Shaving is better than shortening because the Prophet (may
peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) prayed for those who shaved three
times and prayed for those who shortened once. The only exceptional case is
when the time of Hajj is about to come. It is better for him to shorten so
that he leaves some of his hair to be shaved or shortened in pilgrimage.
