قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) مَا تَقُولُ فِي رَجُلٍ طَافَ فَأَوْهَمَ فَقَالَ طُفْتُ أَرْبَعَةً أَوْ طُفْتُ ثَلَاثَةً فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَيَّ الطَّوَافَيْنِ كَانَ طَوَافَ نَافِلَةٍ أَمْ طَوَافَ فَرِيضَةٍ قَالَ إِنْ كَانَ طَوَافَ فَرِيضَةٍ فَلْيُلْقِ مَا فِي يَدِهِ وَ لْيَسْتَأْنِفْ وَ إِنْ كَانَ طَوَافَ نَافِلَةٍ فَاسْتَيْقَنَ ثَلَاثَةً وَ هُوَ فِي شَكٍّ مِنَ الرَّابِعِ أَنَّهُ طَافَ فَلْيَبْنِ عَلَى الثَّلَاثَةِ فَإِنَّهُ يَجُوزُ لَهُ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Hanan Bin Sudeyr who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘What are you<sup>asws</sup> saying regarding a man, so he got confused and he said, ‘Did I do four circuits or did I do three circuits?’ So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Which of the two <span class="iTxt">Tawaaf</span>s was it, an optional or Obligatory? If it was an Obligatory <span class="iTxt">Tawaaf</span>, so let him throw whatever was in his hand, and let him resume; and if it was an optional <span class="iTxt">Tawaaf</span>, so if he was certain of three and he was in doubt from the fourth that he had circuited, so let him build upon the three, for it is allowed for him’.
