==Introduction==
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 Ka'ba’s door.
Dehkhoda considers the origin of the word "Shadharwan" to be Persian, meaning a large curtain that is hung in front of the entrances and porches of the homes and palaces of kings and rulers.<ref>Dihkhudā, ''Lughatnāma-yi Dihkhudā'', under the word شاذروان. </ref>
Some believe that it is called "Shadharwan" because [[Curtain of Ka'ba|the curtain of the Ka'ba]] is connected to the rings that are located on it (akin to a "curtain holder").<ref> Ṣabrī Pāshā, ''Mawsūʿa mirʾāt al-ḥaramayn'', p. 67.</ref>
Shadharwan is also referred to as "Ta'zir," because it serves as a type of belt or covering for the Ka'ba.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'', vol. 3, p. 288.</ref>
At the bottom of the side of Hijr Ismail, there is no Shadharwan, and likewise, there is no Shadharwan placed beneath the door of the Ka'ba. Instead, a flat step measuring 345 centimeters in length has been constructed there.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 289.</ref>
==Background==
The Shadharwan is considered a part of the Ka'ba that was originally constructed by [[Abraham (a)|Abraham]]. It was reduced by the Quraysh when they rebuilt the Ka'ba.<ref>Ṣabrī Pāshā, ''Mawsūʿa mirʾāt al-ḥaramayn'', vol. 1, p. 263.</ref>
The Quraysh reduced the dimensions of the Ka'ba from all four sides.<ref>Ḥusaynī kāshānī, ''Mufarraḥt al-anām fī taʾsīs bayt allah al-ḥrām'', p. 24.</ref>
Indeed, they reduced the side of [[Hijr Isma'il|Hijr Ismail]] more than the other sides. Before this, that side of the Ka'ba extended up to halfway through Hijr Ismail.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 289.</ref>
For this reason, the side of Hijr Ismail does not have a Shadharwan.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 289.</ref>
The Shadharwan in its current form is believed to have been constructed by [[Abdullah b. Zubayr]] in the year 64 AH/683-4.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 295.</ref>
It has been said that Abdullah b. Zubayr created the Shadharwan to protect the walls of the Kaaba from water infiltration and to prevent the bodies of those performing Tawaf from touching the [[The Ka'ba's curtain|Ka'ba’s curtain]]. This was intended to prevent damage to both the individuals and the curtain during crowded times.<ref>Ḥamū, ''Muʿarifī amākin makka mukarrama'', p. 47.</ref>
Other opinions exist regarding the timing of the construction of the first Shadharwan.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 295.</ref>
==Renovations==
The Shadharwan has been reconstructed or replaced several times throughout history. Some of the most significant changes include:
- In the late third century of Hijra, the Shadharwan was covered with plaster and marble.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 295.</ref>
And in the first decade of the year 670 AH/1271-2, it was converted into a sloped form.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 295.</ref>
Before that, the Shadhrwan was in the form of a step, and sometimes people would perform [[Tawaf]] over it.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 295.</ref>
The stones of the Shadharwan were replaced with flint stones in the year 1098 Hijri, by the order of Ahmad Pasha.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 295.</ref>
In the year 1417 AH/ 1996-7, during the reign of King Fahd, the fifth king of Saudi Arabia, the marble stones of the Shadharwan were also replaced.(10) Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 296.
Reports in historical sources also mention repairs and other modifications to parts of the Shadharwan in the years 542, 636, 661, 670, 838, 846, and 1040 of Hijra.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 295.</ref>
On the Shadharwan to the right of the Ka'ba's door, there are eight pieces of marble placed side by side. The color of these marbles is a matte yellow tending towards red.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 17.</ref>
Some have suggested, "It appears that these stones were placed here during the renovation of the Mataf area in the year 631 AH/ 1233-4.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 17.</ref>

Each of the eight pieces is rectangular, with the largest measuring 33 centimeters in length and 21 centimeters in width. All of them are arranged together in a square formation, each side measuring 74 centimeters.<ref> Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 17.</ref>
Rings have been installed on the Shadharwan which are used to secure the curtain of the Kaaba in place, preventing it from being displaced by the wind.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 297.</ref>
These rings are made of yellow brass.<ref>Kurdī, ''Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm'',vol. 3, p. 297.</ref>

According to the opinions of Shiite religious authorities, it is permissible to touch the wall of the Kaaba on the three sides where the Shadharwan is located, and it does not harm the Tawaf; although it is recommended as a precaution to avoid doing so.(19) ) Mūsawī Shāhrūdī, ''Jāmiʿal-fatāwā'', p. 116.
Sunni jurisprudential schools have differing opinions about the ruling on Tawaf over the Shadharwan. The Shafi'i and Maliki schools consider Tawaf on the Shadharwan to be invalid. The Hanafi school, on the other hand, does not consider the Shadharwan to be part of the Kaaba. In contrast, the Hanbali school does not regard Tawaf over it as invalidating the Tawaf.(20) Fāsī al-Makkī, ''Shifāʾ al-gharām bi akhbār al-balad al-ḥarām'',vol. 2, p. 188.

Introduction

Shadharwan is a short, sloped protrusion located at the bottom of the Ka'ba's walls, except for the side of Hijr Ismail and below the Ka'ba’s door. Dehkhoda considers the origin of the word "Shadharwan" to be Persian, meaning a large curtain that is hung in front of the entrances and porches of the homes and palaces of kings and rulers.[1] Some believe that it is called "Shadharwan" because the curtain of the Ka'ba is connected to the rings that are located on it (akin to a "curtain holder").[2] Shadharwan is also referred to as "Ta'zir," because it serves as a type of belt or covering for the Ka'ba.[3] At the bottom of the side of Hijr Ismail, there is no Shadharwan, and likewise, there is no Shadharwan placed beneath the door of the Ka'ba. Instead, a flat step measuring 345 centimeters in length has been constructed there.[4]

Background

The Shadharwan is considered a part of the Ka'ba that was originally constructed by Abraham. It was reduced by the Quraysh when they rebuilt the Ka'ba.[5] The Quraysh reduced the dimensions of the Ka'ba from all four sides.[6] Indeed, they reduced the side of Hijr Ismail more than the other sides. Before this, that side of the Ka'ba extended up to halfway through Hijr Ismail.[7] For this reason, the side of Hijr Ismail does not have a Shadharwan.[8] The Shadharwan in its current form is believed to have been constructed by Abdullah b. Zubayr in the year 64 AH/683-4.[9] It has been said that Abdullah b. Zubayr created the Shadharwan to protect the walls of the Kaaba from water infiltration and to prevent the bodies of those performing Tawaf from touching the Ka'ba’s curtain. This was intended to prevent damage to both the individuals and the curtain during crowded times.[10] Other opinions exist regarding the timing of the construction of the first Shadharwan.[11]

The Shadharwan has been reconstructed or replaced several times throughout history. Some of the most significant changes include:

- In the late third century of Hijra, the Shadharwan was covered with plaster and marble.[12] And in the first decade of the year 670 AH/1271-2, it was converted into a sloped form.[13] Before that, the Shadhrwan was in the form of a step, and sometimes people would perform Tawaf over it.[14] The stones of the Shadharwan were replaced with flint stones in the year 1098 Hijri, by the order of Ahmad Pasha.[15] In the year 1417 AH/ 1996-7, during the reign of King Fahd, the fifth king of Saudi Arabia, the marble stones of the Shadharwan were also replaced.(10) Kurdī, Al-Tārīkh al-qawīm li Makka wa bayt Allāh al-karīm,vol. 3, p. 296.
