2947. It was narrated that Safiyyah bint Shaibah said: "When the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ saw that things had settled down, in the year of the Conquest (of Makkah), he performed Tawāf on his camel, touching the corner with a staff in his hand. Then he entered the House and found a dove made of aloeswood. He broke it, then he stood at the door of the Ka'bah and threw it out, and I was watching him." (Hasan)

Arabic text

2947 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَوْرٍ، عَنْ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ، قَالَتْ: لَمَّا اطْمَأَنَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ «طَافَ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ يَسْتَلِمُ الرُّكْنَ، بِمِحْجَنٍ بِيَدِهِ، ثُمَّ دَخَلَ الْكَعْبَةَ، فَوَجَدَ فِيهَا حَمَامَةَ عَيْدَانٍ، فَكَسَرَهَا، ثُمَّ قَامَ عَلَى بَابِ الْكَعْبَةِ، فَرَمَى بِهَا، وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ»

Commentary

Circumambulation around the Ka'bah while riding is allowed. So, if one circumambulates sitting on a sedan or wheel chair for any religiously valid excuse then his Tawāf is valid. The image of a living thing should be destroyed and its picture should be erased. The Prophet ﷺ commanded the removal of the drawings which were on the wall of Ka'bah.
