Hadith record

1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from al-Hassan from Zur‘ah from Sanaa ‘ah who has said the following: “About Sa‘y (walking faster like running slowly) between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah, I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s.). He (the Imam) said, ‘When you reach the first house on your right side in the beginning of the valley, then walk faster like running slowly until the beginning of the lanes on your right side, then stop Sa‘y (walking faster like running slowly) after you pass the valley toward al- Marwah. When you reach it stop walking fast and walk normally. When you are coming back from al- Marwah then in the beginning of the lanes which I mentioned begin Sa‘y (walking faster like running slowly) and when you arrive at the door from the side of al-Safa’ after passing the valley then stop Sa‘y (walking faster like running slowly) and walk normally. Sa‘y (walking faster like running slowly) is for men only. Sa‘y in such manner is not for women.”’
