السعي على كرسي متحرك
Islamic scholars unanimously agree that performing سعی in a wheelchair is valid and counts as a complete سعی. The principle is based on the hadith that نبی کریم Muhammad (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) permitted those unable to walk to be carried during طواف, and this ruling extends to سعی. The modern Mas'a walkway has been designed with accessibility in mind, featuring designated wheelchair lanes on the ground floor with smooth flooring and appropriate width. Wheelchair rental and attendant services are available at مسجد الحرام for a fee. Pilgrims in wheelchairs should still make the required دعائیں and دعائیں at Safa and Marwah. The seven-lap requirement remains the same. Companions pushing the wheelchair should be mindful of other حجاج and follow traffic flow directions.
