The Sufficient (Vol 4) · Hadith 1541 (#Ḥadīth #6)

6ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ أَبِي عَزَّةَ قَالَ مَرَّ بِي أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) وَأَنَا فِي الشَّوْطِ الْخَامِسِ مِنَ الطَّوَافِ فَقَالَ لِي انْطَلِقْ حَتَّى نَعُودَ هَاهُنَا رَجُلاً فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّمَا أَنَا فِي خَمْسَةِ أَشْوَاطٍ فَأُتِمُّ أُسْبُوعِي قَالَ اقْطَعْهُ وَاحْفَظْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ تَقْطَعُ حَتَّى تَعُودَ إِلَى الْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي قَطَعْتَ مِنْهُ فَتَبْنِيَ عَلَيْهِ.

6. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Ali ibn ‘Abd al-‘Aziz from abu ‘Azzah who has said the following: “I was performing the fifth time’s Tawaf (walking around the House) when abu ‘Abd Allah , passed by and said, ‘Come so we can visit a man there/ I said, ‘This is my fifth time’s Tawaf (walking around the House), allow me to complete my seven times Tawaf (walking around the House).’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Stop and remember where you have stopped until you return to where you left then continue to complete the remaining times of Tawaf (walking around the House).”’
