\nNarrated Ibn `Abbas:\n \n\nWhen Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and his companions arrived (at Mecca), the pagans said, "There have come to \nyou a group of people who have been weakened by the fever of Yathrib (i.e. Medina)." So the Prophet (ﷺ) \nordered his companions to do Ramal (i.e. fast walking) in the first three rounds of Tawaf around the \nKa`ba and to walk in between the two corners (i.e. the black stone and the Yemenite corner). The only \ncause which prevented the Prophet (ﷺ) from ordering them to do Ramal in all the rounds of Tawaf, was \nthat he pitied them.\n
