Remember We made the House a place of assembly for men and a place of safety; and take ye the station of Abraham as a place of prayer; and We covenanted with Abraham and Isma'il, that they should sanctify My House for those who compass [taa'if*] it round, or use it as a retreat, or bow, or prostrate themselves (therein in prayer). [Qur'an 2:125] *plural = tawaaf - circumbulate.
