Sa'yee of Safa and Marwah

Safa and Marwa are two small hills now located in Masjid Al-Haram. Pilgrims travel back and forth between them seven times which is obligatory ritual of both Hajj and Umrah.

After completing Tawaf, go towards Safa mount and when reaching near it, recite the following dua (only once):

(Inna alssafa waalmarwata min shaAAairi Allah)

Indeed, as-Safa and al-Marwah are among the symbols of Allah.

Sahih Muslim: 1218 (a)

After reaching Safa (starting point of Sa’yee), make dua, glorify Allah by facing the Kaaba and recite the following dua:

(Laa ilaaha ill-allaahu waḥdahu laa shareeka lah, lahul-mulku wa lahul-ḥamdu wa huwa ‛alaa kulli shay’in qadeer, laa ilaaha ill-allaahu waḥdahu, anjaza wa‛dahu, wa naṣara ‛abdahu, wa hazam-al-’aḥzaaba waḥdah)

None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone, without partner. To Him belongs all sovereignty and praise and He is over all things omnipotent. None has the right to be worshipped except Allah alone. He fulfilled His promise, aided His Servant and single-handedly defeated the allies.

Sahih Muslim: 1218 (a)

After supplications, start walk from Safa to Marwah seven times; whilst running between the two green pillars/lights. Running between green lights is for men only. Women pilgrims will walk normally between the green lights/pillars. Remember Safa to Marwa is one round, and Marwa to Safa is the second, in this way the seven rounds of Sa'yee will end at Marwa. Repeat dua mention above when climbing both Safa and Marwa mountain. (preferably three times)

There is no specific dua or dhikr during Sa’yee. You can engage yourself in any duas/supplications or dhikr during Sa'yee.

After completing Sa’yee, drink plenty of Zam-Zam water.
