Chapter on Performing Sa'i While Riding and Sitting Between Safa and Marwah

رَوَى مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ اَلْمَرْأَةُ تَسْعَى بَيْنَ اَلصَّفَا وَ اَلْمَرْوَةِ عَلَى دَابَّةٍ أَوْ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ قَالَ «لاَ بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ» قَالَ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ «لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ وَ اَلْمَشْيُ أَفْضَلُ.
Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar narrated from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام saying: I asked him about a woman performing Sa'i (running between Safa and Marwah) on a mount or a camel. Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no problem with that." I also asked him about a man doing the same, Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no problem with it, but walking is better."
