2841 - وَ سَأَلَ أَبَانٌ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : أَ كَانَ لِرَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ طَوَافٌ يُعْرَفُ بِهِ فَقَالَ «كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ يَطُوفُ بِاللَّيْلِ وَ اَلنَّهَارِ عَشَرَةَ أَسَابِيعَ ثَلاَثَةً أَوَّلَ اَللَّيْلِ وَ ثَلاَثَةً آخِرَ اَللَّيْلِ وَ اِثْنَيْنِ إِذَا أَصْبَحَ وَ اِثْنَيْنِ بَعْدَ اَلظُّهْرِ وَ كَانَ فِيمَا بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ رَاحَتُهُ.
Hadith.2841 - Aban asked Abu Abdullah 
:
"Did the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) have a specific pattern of circumambulation that he was known for?"
Imam replied: "The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) used to perform ten asbu‘an (sets of seven laps) of circumambulation during the day and night: three at the beginning of the night, three at the end of the night, two in the morning, and two after noon. Between these, he would take his rest."
