سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ فِي الطَّوَافِ قَدْ طَافَ بَعْضَهُ وَ بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ بَعْضُهُ فَيَطْلُعُ الْفَجْرُ فَيَخْرُجُ مِنَ الطَّوَافِ إِلَى الْحِجْرِ أَوْ إِلَى بَعْضِ الْمَسْجِدِ إِذَا كَانَ لَمْ يُوتِرْ فَيُوتِرُ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ فَيُتِمُّ طَوَافَهُ أَ فَتَرَى ذَلِكَ أَفْضَلُ أَمْ يُتِمُّ الطَّوَافَ ثُمَّ يُوتِرُ وَ إِنْ أَسْفَرَ بَعْضَ الْإِسْفَارِ قَالَ ابْدَأْ بِالْوَتْرِ وَ اقْطَعِ الطَّوَافَ إِذَا خِفْتَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ أَتِمَّ الطَّوَافَ بَعْدُ .
Translation
Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Abdul Rahman Bin Al Hajjaj, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ibrahim<sup>asws</sup> (7<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about the man who happens to be in the <span class="iTxt">Tawaaf</span>, having had done part of it, and there remains upon him part of it. So, the dawn emerges, and he goes out from the <span class="iTxt">Tawaaf</span> to the (Black) Stone, or to one of the Masjids. If he had not performed Al-Witr, so he performs <span class="iTxt">Al-Witr</span>. Then he returns to his place, so he completes his <span class="iTxt">Tawaaf</span>. Do you<sup>asws</sup> view that as being superior, or he should complete the <span class="iTxt">Tawaaf</span>, then he should perform <span class="iTxt">Al-Witr</span> and even if it becomes brighter part of the brightness?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He should begin with <span class="iTxt">Al-Witr</span>, and cut the <span class="iTxt">Tawaaf</span> when he fears that. Then he should complete the <span class="iTxt">Tawaaf</span> afterwards’.
