The answer

The most complete and best for the pilgrim performing ' is to adhere to the supplications (adhkar) reported in the during the (circumambulation) and sa'i ( सात प्रदक्षिणा). So, between the Yemeni Corner and the Black Stone, one says: "Our Lord, grant us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and protect us from the torment of the Fire." When standing on Safa and Marwah, one says: "Indeed, Safa and Marwah are among the symbols of Allah. So whoever performs Hajj to the House or performs 'Umrah - there is no blame upon him for circumambulating between them." Then one says: "There is no god but Allah alone, without partner. To Him belongs all sovereignty and to Him belongs all praise, and He is over all things competent. There is no god but Allah alone. He fulfilled His promise, supported His servant, and defeated the confederates alone." This is repeated three times, and between them, one supplicates with whatever one wishes. The same is said on Marwah. Other than that, one may supplicate with whatever prayers (du'a), remembrance (), and recitation of Qur'an one wishes, except that some scholars, such as Malik, disliked recitation during tawaf. It is permissible to increase in supplication during tawaf, and it is recommended.
