1. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who performs Tawaf around al-Ka‘bah, then goes to al-Safa’ and al-Marwah to perform Tawaf, and remembers that he has left out certain parts of Tawaf around the House. He (the Imam) said, ‘He must go back to the House to complete his Tawaf, then come to al-Safa’ and al-Marwah to complete the remaining parts.’ I then asked, ‘What happens if one begins with al-Safa’ and al-Marwah before the House?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He must go to the House for Tawaf, then perform Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah again.’ I asked, ‘What is the difference between the two?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘This has done certain parts of Tawaf and this one has not done anything.’”
1ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) رَجُلٌ طَافَ بِالْكَعْبَةِ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَطَافَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ فَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَطُوفُ إِذْ ذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ تَرَكَ مِنْ طَوَافِهِ بِالْبَيْتِ قَالَ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ فَيُتِمُّ طَوَافَهُ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ فَيُتِمُّ مَا بَقِيَ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّهُ بَدَأَ بِالصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَبْدَأَ بِالْبَيْتِ فَقَالَ يَأْتِي الْبَيْتَ فَيَطُوفُ بِهِ ثُمَّ يَسْتَأْنِفُ طَوَافَهُ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ قُلْتُ فَمَا فَرْقٌ بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ قَالَ لأَنَّ هَذَا قَدْ دَخَلَ فِي شَيْ‏ءٍ مِنَ الطَّوَافِ وَهَذَا لَمْ يَدْخُلْ فِي شَيْ‏ءٍ مِنْهُ.
