সাঈ Direction(اتجاه السعي) The prescribed direction for performing সাঈ, which must begin from the hill of Safa toward Marwah and end the seventh lap at Marwah. This sequence follows নবী করীমic Sunnah and কুরআনic order.
اتجاه السعي
The direction of সাঈ is established by আল-কুরআন and Sunnah. Allah mentions in Surah Al-Baqarah (2:158): 'Indeed, Safa and Marwah are among the symbols of Allah.' নবী করীম Muhammad (সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়া সাল্লাম) began his সাঈ at Safa, saying 'I begin with what Allah began with.' The majority of scholars (Maliki, Shafi'i, Hanbali) consider starting from Safa a condition (shart) for the validity of সাঈ — meaning if someone starts from Marwah, that first walk does not count. The Hanafi school considers it wajib (ওয়াজিব) but not a condition of validity, meaning starting from Marwah would be sinful but the সাঈ could still be valid with an additional lap. Practically, the multi-level Mas'a has clear signage indicating direction.
