The Function of the Sunnīs’ Farewell Circumambulation for the Lawfulness of Women from the Shī‘ī Jurisprudence Perspective
Journal Title: فقه و اصول - Year 2015, Vol 47, Issue 100
Abstract
Among the most important differences between the Sunnīs and Shī‘as is the legal obligation of the circumambulation called ṭawāf al-nisā’ in the end of the Ḥajj pilgrimage and the consequences of its non-performance. Contrary to the Shī‘as, the Sunnīs’ jurisprudence the have opined the necessity of another circumambulation called ṭawāf al-widā‘ (farewell circumambulation) by putting aside ṭawāf al-nisā’. The present writing discusses the role of ṭawāf ql-widā‘ in the lawfulness of (intimacy with) women as a substitute to ṭawāf al-nisā’ from the viewpoint of Imāmī jurisprudence. Searching into the legal sources and enumeration of some instances of the sunna and some other legal rules and evidences that are able to prove the sameness of these two circumstances and/or at least the sufficiency of the Sunnīs’ practice has been dealt with mostly in this research. The reliable ḥadīth of Isḥāq b. ‘Ammār, sīra of the religionists, the non- mpressionability of the soundness and the successive order of the effects of ṭawāf al-nisā from its name and title, and the principle of obligation (ilzām) are among the instances the writer has dealt with.
