Sahih al-Bukhari 1587 (Book 25, Hadith 127)
Ka`ba; and had not yet performed Tawaf between Safa and Marwa, could have sexual relation with
his wife, Ibn `Umar replied “The Prophet (p.b.u.h) reached Mecca and performed the seven rounds (of
Tawaf) of the Ka`ba and then offered a two-rak`at prayer behind Maqam Ibrahim and then performed
the seven rounds (of Tawaf) between Safa and Marwa.” He added, “Verily! In Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)
(p.b.u.h) you have a good example.” We asked Jabir bin `Abdullah (the same question) and he said,
“He (that man) should not come near (his wife) till he has completed Tawaf between Safa and
Marwa.”
