2. If he had run between Safa and Marwah after the Tawaf of Arrival, he does not perform raml in this tawaf, nor is he obliged to run again.  But, if he had not performed Sa`y before, he performs raml in this tawaf and Sa`y after it in, the manner we have mentioned.

3. [Now,] women are permissible for him.

4. This tawaf is the obligatory (fard) one in hajj.

• One stands and supplicates by it.

3. Then, one pelts the one next to it similarly, and stands by it.

4. Then, one pelts Jamrat al-`Aqabah, and does not stand by it [thereafter].

5. The next day, he pelts the three Jamarat after the decline of the sun similarly.

6. Then, if one wishes to hasten one’s departure, one departs to Makkah.  But, if one wishes to remain, one pelts the three Jamarat on the fourth day after the decline of the sun.

• If, on this day, one performs the pelting before the decline of the sun, after sunrise, it is valid according to Abu Hanifah.

7. It is disliked for a person to send his belongings ahead to Makkah and to take up residence, until he has pelted.
