Excellence of Tawaf

2ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عُمَرَ الْيَمَانِيِّ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ كَانَ أَبِي يَقُولُ مَنْ طَافَ بِهَذَا الْبَيْتِ أُسْبُوعاً وَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ فِي أَيِّ جَوَانِبِ الْمَسْجِدِ شَاءَ كَتَبَ الله لَهُ سِتَّةَ آلافِ حَسَنَةٍ وَمَحَا عَنْهُ سِتَّةَ آلافِ سَيِّئَةٍ وَرَفَعَ لَهُ سِتَّةَ آلافِ دَرَجَةٍ وَقَضَى لَهُ سِتَّةَ آلافِ حَاجَةٍ فَمَا عَجَّلَ مِنْهَا فَبِرَحْمَةِ الله وَمَا أَخَّرَ مِنْهَا فَشَوْقاً إِلَى دُعَائِهِ.
2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Ibrahim ibn ‘Umar al-Yemaniy from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said that my father would say, ‘For one who performs Tawaf around this House seven times and performs two Rak‘at salat (prayer), anywhere in the Masjid al- Haram (the Sacred Masjid), Allah writes for him six thousand good deeds. He deletes six thousand of his sinful deeds, raises for him six thousand degrees and makes his six thousand wishes to come true, of which those earlier are due to Allah’s kindness and those delayed are due to the desire to listen to his prayers.’”
