Ibrahim narrates that Alqamah completed the recitation of the Holy Qur’an in one night in Makkah in such a way that he performed seven circuits (tawaf) of the Ka’bah. Then he came to Maqam Ibrahim and recited Surah Ma’in there. Then he performed seven more circuits of tawaf. Then he came to Maqam Ibrahim and offered prayer there, then recited Surah Mathani. Then he performed seven circuits of the Ka’bah. Then he came to Maqam Ibrahim, offered prayer there, and recited the remaining portion of the Holy Qur’an.
