2. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj who has said the following
“I once asked abu Ibrahim (a.s.), about a man who has performed certain parts of his Tawaf and certain parts are still left and it becomes dawn. He comes out of Tawaf to al-Hijr or other parts of Masjid, and if he has not said al-Witr to say it, then comes back to complete the remaining parts of his Tawaf. Is this more virtuous or to complete his Tawaf, then go for al-Witr even if it (the morning) becomes brighter to a certain degree? He (the Imam) said, ‘You can begin al-Witr and keep your Tawaf on hold, if you are afraid (of its getting brighter) thereafter complete your Tawaf.”’
2ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ عَنْ أَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ فِي الطَّوَافِ قَدْ طَافَ بَعْضَهُ وَبَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ بَعْضُهُ فَيَطْلُعُ الْفَجْرُ فَيَخْرُجُ مِنَ الطَّوَافِ إِلَى الْحِجْرِ أَوْ إِلَى بَعْضِ الْمَسْجِدِ إِذَا كَانَ لَمْ يُوتِرْ فَيُوتِرُ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ فَيُتِمُّ طَوَافَهُ أَ فَتَرَى ذَلِكَ أَفْضَلُ أَمْ يُتِمُّ الطَّوَافَ ثُمَّ يُوتِرُ وَإِنْ أَسْفَرَ بَعْضَ الإِسْفَارِ قَالَ ابْدَأْ بِالْوَتْرِ وَاقْطَعِ الطَّوَافَ إِذَا خِفْتَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ أَتِمَّ الطَّوَافَ بَعْدُ.
