And Salamah ibn Shabib narrated to me, saying: Al-Hasan ibn A'yan narrated to us, saying: Ma'qil—and he is Ibn 'Ubaydullah al-Jazari—narrated to us, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The use of stones for cleansing is odd-numbered, the stoning of the pillars is odd-numbered, the running between al-Safa and al-Marwah is odd-numbered, and the circumambulation is odd-numbered. And when any of you cleanses himself with stones, let him do so with an odd number."
