tawaf
2796 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ اَلْحَجَّاجِ قَالَ : سَأَلْتُ أَبَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ فِي اَلطَّوَافِ قَدْ طَافَ بَعْضَهُ وَ بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ بَعْضُهُ فَيَخْرُجُ مِنَ اَلطَّوَافِ إِلَى اَلْحِجْرِ أَوْ إِلَى بَعْضِ اَلْمَسْجِدِ إِذَا كَانَ لَمْ يُوتِرْ فَيُوتِرُ فَيَرْجِعُ فَيُتِمُّ طَوَافَهُ أَ فَتَرَى ذَلِكَ أَفْضَلُ أَمْ يُتِمُّ اَلطَّوَافَ ثُمَّ يُوتِرُ وَ إِنْ أَسْفَرَ بَعْضَ اَلْإِسْفَارِ فَقَالَ «اِبْدَأْ بِالْوَتْرِ وَ اِقْطَعِ اَلطَّوَافَ إِذَا خِفْتَ ثُمَّ اِئْتِ اَلطَّوَافَ ».
Hadith.2796 - It is narrated from Abdurrahman ibn al-Hajjaj, who said: I asked Abu Ibrahim (as) about a man who is performing tawaf and has completed part of it, with some still remaining, but he leaves the tawaf to go to al-Hijr or another part of the mosque to perform the Witr prayer if he has not yet prayed it. Then he returns to complete his tawaf. Should he do this, or is it better to complete the tawaf first and then perform Witr, even if the time for Witr is nearing its end? Imam (as) said: "Start with Witr and interrupt the tawaf if you fear missing it, then return to complete your tawaf."
