Hadith 1880

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، يَقُولُ : " طَافَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ بِالْبَيْتِ وَ بِالصَّفَا وَ الْمَرْوَةِ لِيَرَاهُ النَّاسُ وَلِيُشْرِفَ وَلِيَسْأَلُوهُ فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ غَشُوهُ " .
Jabir bin Abdullah said The Prophet ﷺ performed the circumambulation of the House (the Kaabah) on his Camel at the Farewell Pilgrimage and ran between Al Safa’ and Al Marwah, so that the people could see him, remain well informed about him and ask him questions (about Hajj) for the people surrounded him.

Benefits and Issues:
From this hadith, it is understood that even in the case of praying based on the lesser number (bi-na‘alay al-aqall), that is, performing the prayer according to certainty, the prostrations of forgetfulness (sujud as-sahw) will be performed before the salutation (salam), even if in this situation there is an addition in the prayer. That is, if instead of four, five units (rak‘ahs) are performed.

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
From this it is understood that, in case of necessity, circumambulation (tawaf) may be performed on a mount instead of on foot. For example, elderly and sick individuals. Similarly, a mount may be used for educational purposes and the like.
