It is narrated from Nafi‘ that Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) used to perform raml (brisk walking) in the first three circuits of tawaf and walk at a normal pace in the remaining circuits, and he used to say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) also used to do the same. Sayyiduna Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to walk at a normal pace between the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone. Nafi‘ said: He used to walk between these two so that it would be easier to perform istilam (touching or gesturing) of the Black Stone.
