Jami at-Tirmidhi 862 (Book 9, Hadith 55) #26428
The Prophet's Rituals in Makkah

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad performed seven circuits of Tawaf around the Kaaba, prayed behind the Maqam Ibrahim, and recited a verse from the Quran while beginning at As-Safa.

Jabir narrated: "When the Prophet arrived in Makkah, he performed seven (circuits) of Tawaf around the House. Then he came to the Maqam and said: And take you (people) the Maqam (place) of Ibrahim as a place of prayer. Then he prayed behind the Maqam. Then he came to the (Black) Stone to touch it. Then he said: 'We begin with what Allah began with'. So he began at As-Safa and recited: Indeed As-Safa and Al-Marwah are among the Symbols of Allah".
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ حِينَ قَدِمَ مَكَّةَ طَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ سَبْعًا وَأَتَى الْمَقَامَ فَقَرَأَ ‏:‏‏(‏ وَاتَّخِذُوا مِنْ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُصَلًّى ‏)‏ فَصَلَّى خَلْفَ الْمَقَامِ ثُمَّ أَتَى الْحَجَرَ فَاسْتَلَمَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ نَبْدَأُ بِمَا بَدَأَ اللَّهُ بِهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَبَدَأَ بِالصَّفَا وَقَرَأَ ‏:‏ ‏(‏إِنَّ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةَ مِنْ شَعَائِرِ اللَّهِ ‏)‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّهُ يَبْدَأُ بِالصَّفَا قَبْلَ الْمَرْوَةِ فَإِنْ بَدَأَ بِالْمَرْوَةِ قَبْلَ الصَّفَا لَمْ يُجْزِهِ وَبَدَأَ بِالصَّفَا ‏.‏ وَاخْتَلَفَ أَهْلُ الْعِلْمِ فِيمَنْ طَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ وَلَمْ يَطُفْ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ حَتَّى رَجَعَ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ إِنْ لَمْ يَطُفْ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ حَتَّى خَرَجَ مِنْ مَكَّةَ فَإِنْ ذَكَرَ وَهُوَ قَرِيبٌ مِنْهَا رَجَعَ فَطَافَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ حَتَّى أَتَى بِلاَدَهُ أَجْزَأَهُ وَعَلَيْهِ دَمٌ ‏.‏ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِنْ تَرَكَ الطَّوَافَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ حَتَّى رَجَعَ إِلَى بِلاَدِهِ فَإِنَّهُ لاَ يُجْزِيهِ ‏.‏ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الشَّافِعِيِّ ‏.‏ قَالَ الطَّوَافُ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ وَاجِبٌ لاَ يَجُوزُ الْحَجُّ إِلاَّ بِهِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Perform religious duties properly according to Islamic teachings; Respect places mentioned in Quran; Follow God's commands; Recite verses from His book etc..

EXPLANATIONS:
When the Prophet Muhammad arrived in Makkah, he performed seven circuits of Tawaf around the Kaaba. This is an Islamic ritual that involves walking around the Kaaba seven times counterclockwise. After this, he went to Maqam Ibrahim and prayed there. This is a station near to where Abraham stood when building the Kaaba with his son Ishmael. Then he came to touch the Black Stone which is part of one corner of the Kaaba and said “We begin with what Allah began with” before reciting a verse from Surat Al-Baqarah in which Allah mentions As-Safa and Al-Marwah as two symbols of Him. These are two hills near Makkah where pilgrims go during Hajj or Umrah rituals as part of their pilgrimage rites.

The hadith teaches us about performing rituals according to Islamic teachings and following what Allah has commanded us to do by starting with what He started with - reciting verses from His book - as well as respecting places that have been mentioned in it such as As-Safa and Al-Marwah. It also shows us how important it is for Muslims to perform their religious duties properly by following all steps correctly without leaving any out or doing them incorrectly so that they can gain rewards from Allah for their deeds on Judgment Day.
