Q 5: Concerning jogging between the two green markers during Sa‘y (going between Safa and Marwah during Hajj) for women; based on my limited reading of the books of Fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence), the chapters on Hajj and ‘Umrah, I have found nothing which indicates that women are prohibited from jogging. However, I once heard a scholar on the television saying that women should not jog during Sa‘y, that it is only for men, and the reason is to protect women and prevent them from revealing their shape while jogging. However, he did not mention any evidence to support this claim. I said to myself that this may be his personal Ijtihad (juristic effort to infer expert legal rulings), but jogging is a Sunnah (supererogatory act of worship following the example of the Prophet) and it was initiated by Hajar (may Allah be pleased with her). Praise be to Allah, I understand about Ra’y (personal opinion) and - praise be to Allah - the Din (religion) is not based on Ra’y, as the Commander of the Believers, ‘Aly (may Allah be pleased with him) said. Please advise us and may Allah bless you. I occasionally go to perform ‘Umrah with my family; we would therefore like to know the correct ruling on this.
