*_DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER_*
Yaum al-ithnayn | 2nd day of Dhul-Ḥijjah, 1447 AH | Tuesday, 19th May 2026. *_WHY WE GO ROUND THE KAABAH 7 TIMES_*. BismilLahir Rahmanir Raheem.
Let's continue with our studies as to; Why Seven Times Specifically. The number seven appears repeatedly in Islamic worship and creation: Seven Heavens, Seven Earths, Seven Rounds of Ṭawāf,
Seven Circuits between Ṣafā and Marwah, Seven pebbles in stoning the Jamarāt.
ALLAH Azzawajal chose this number in many acts of worship. The precise wisdom is not fully known because the reason was not revealed by ALLAH Azzawajal, but Muslims follow it because ALLAH Azzawajal and HIS Messenger ﷺ prescribed it. This is an important principle in Islam: Acts of worship are based on revelation, not human invention but as Muslims we follow what ALLAH Azzawajal and HIS Messenger have requested us to do.
The Prophet ﷺ performed ṭawāf seven times and instructed the Ummah to follow his rituals.
He said:
“Take your rites of Hajj from me.” — Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim.
In Summary
Ṭawāf around the Ka‘bah:
originates from the worship established by Abraham (AS),
was restored by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, symbolizes unity, submission, and devotion to ALLAH Azzawajal, mirrors heavenly worship, and is performed seven times because ALLAH Azzawajal legislated it through revelation.
It is not idol worship, but one of the purest manifestations of Tawḥīd, directing the heart, body, and soul entirely toward ALLAH Azzawajal. *_May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences_*. Aameen.
