'''Shadharwan''' is a short, sloped protrusion located at the bottom of the Ka'ba's walls, except for the side of [[Hijr Isma'il|Hijr Ismail]] and below the door of the Ka'ba.

Shi'a jurists and some Sunni jurists consider performing [[Tawaf]] over it as invalid; arguing that the Tawaf should be performed around the Ka'ba, not inside it. | '''Shadharwan''' is a short, sloped protrusion located at the bottom of the Ka'ba's walls, except for the side of [[Hijr Isma'il|Hijr Ismail]] and below the door of the Ka'ba.
