Chapter on Forgetfulness During Circumambulation (tawaf)
وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ طَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ ثَمَانِيَةَ أَشْوَاطٍ طَوَافَ اَلْفَرِيضَةِ قَالَ «فَلْيَضُمَّ إِلَيْهَا سِتّاً ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ ». وَ فِي خَبَرٍ آخَرَ: «إِنَّ اَلْفَرِيضَةَ هِيَ اَلطَّوَافُ اَلثَّانِي وَ اَلرَّكْعَتَانِ اَلْأُولَيَانِ لِطَوَافِ اَلْفَرِيضَةِ وَ اَلرَّكْعَتَانِ اَلْأُخْرَيَانِ وَ اَلطَّوَافُ اَلْأَوَّلُ تَطَوُّعٌ ».
It is narrated from Abu Ayyub, who said: I said to Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, "A man performed eight rounds of tawaf for the obligatory tawaf." Imam عليه السلام said: "Let him add six more rounds to complete fourteen, then pray four rak‘ahs." In another narration: "The obligatory tawaf is the second set of seven rounds, and the first two rak‘ahs are for the obligatory tawaf. The other two rak‘ahs and the first set of tawaf are voluntary."
