'''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. It is believed to be a part of the Ka'ba constructed by [[Abraham (a)|Abraham]], which was reduced by the Quraysh during the renovation 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.

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>

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>
