Sahih Muslim 1276 (Book 15, Hadith 284) #10219
Circumambulating the Kaaba While Riding

SUMMARY: Circumambulating the Kaaba while riding is a form of prayer and worship.

Umm Salama reported: I made a complaint to Allah's Messenger of my ailment, whereupon be said: circumambulate behind the people while riding. She said: So I circumambulated and Allah's Messenger was at that time praying towards the side of the House and he was reciting al-Tur and a Book Inscribed (i. e. Sura Iii. of the Qur'un).
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ شَكَوْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أَنِّي أَشْتَكِي فَقَالَ ‏"‏ طُوفِي مِنْ وَرَاءِ النَّاسِ وَأَنْتِ رَاكِبَةٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَتْ فَطُفْتُ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ حِينَئِذٍ يُصَلِّي إِلَى جَنْبِ الْبَيْتِ وَهُوَ يَقْرَأُ بِـ ‏{‏ الطُّورِ * وَكِتَابٍ مَسْطُورٍ‏}‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the importance of circumambulating the Kaaba, which is a holy site in Islam located in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. It is an act of worship that Muslims perform during their pilgrimage to Mecca. The Prophet Muhammad was reported to have said that Umm Salama should circumambulate behind other people while riding as a form of prayer and worship. This suggests that it is important for Muslims to show respect for others when performing acts of worship, such as by not pushing or shoving them out of the way. Additionally, this hadith also mentions that Prophet Muhammad was reciting Surah Al-Tur and another book inscribed at the time he gave this advice to Umm Salama. This indicates that reading from religious texts can be beneficial when performing acts of worship like circumambulation around the Kaaba.
