Walking from الصفا to المروة counts as one lap, and walking back from المروة to الصفا counts as the second. The seven laps end at المروة. الشيخ ابن باز stated: 'Starting from المروة is invalid and that lap does not count. The الحاج must ensure he begins from الصفا' (Fatawa ابن باز, vol. 16). الشيخ ابن عثيمين concurred: 'The order is أُسس by the السنة and is not optional.'
