It is also narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went towards Safa and recited this verse: {إِنَّ الصَّفَا وَالْـمَـرْوَۃَ مِـنْ شَعَائِرِ اللّٰہِ} (Indeed, Safa and Marwah are among the symbols of Allah) (Surah Al-Baqarah: 158). Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: We will also begin from the place which Allah Almighty mentioned first. After that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ascended Safa until the House of Allah became visible to him. There, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said "Allahu Akbar" and recited this supplication: "La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lahu, ... wa ghalabal ahzaba wahdahu." After that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made supplications there, then descended, and when he (peace and blessings be upon him) reached the middle of the valley, he began to run, until when he crossed the valley and started to ascend Marwah, he resumed walking at a normal pace. When he reached the top of Marwah and the House of Allah became visible to him, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did the same as he had done at Safa.
