When the Prophet ﷺ performed the Tawaf of the Kaʿba, he did Ramal during the first three rounds and in the last four rounds he used to walk and while doing Tawaf between Safa and Marwa, he used to run in the midst of the rain water passage.

البخاري:١٦١٧حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ عِيَاضٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ؓ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا طَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ الطَّوَافَ الأَوَّلَ يَخُبُّ ثَلاَثَةَ أَطْوَافٍ وَيَمْشِي أَرْبَعَةً وَأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَسْعَى بَطْنَ الْمَسِيلِ إِذَا طَافَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ

Nafi' reported on the authority of Ibn Umar (Allah be pleased with them) that when Messenger of Allah ﷺ circumambulated the House, while observing the first circumambulation, he walked swiftly in three (circuits), and walked in four circuits, and ran in the bottom of the valley as he moved between al-Safa and al-Marwa.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا طَافَ فِي الْحَجِّ وَالْعُمْرَةِ أَوَّلَ مَا يَقْدَمُ فَإِنَّهُ يَسْعَى ثَلاَثَةَ أَطْوَافٍ بِالْبَيْتِ ثُمَّ يَمْشِي أَرْبَعَةً ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي سَجْدَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يَطُوفُ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ

It was narrated from Nafi’, from Ibn ‘Umar that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed Tawaf around the House for the first time, he walked briskly with short steps in the first three circuits, and walked normally in the last four, starting and ending at the Hijr.* And Ibn ‘Umar used to do that.

ابن ماجة:٢٩٥٠حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ بَشِيرٍ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا طَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ الطَّوَافَ الأَوَّلَ رَمَلَ ثَلاَثَةً وَمَشَى أَرْبَعَةً مِنَ الْحَجَرِ إِلَى الْحَجَرِ وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يَفْعَلُهُ

Ibn ʿUmar said, "When Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed the first Tawaf he did Ramal in the first three rounds and then walked in the remaining four rounds (of Tawaf of the Kaʿba), where as in performing Tawaf between Safa and Marwa he used to run in the midst of the rainwater passage," I asked Nafiʿ, "Did ʿAbdullah (bin ʿUmar) use to walk steadily on reaching the Yemenite Corner?" He replied, "No, unless people were crowded at the Corner; otherwise he would not leave it without touching it." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1644)

أحمد:٥٧٣٧حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ بَحْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا طَافَ الطَّوَافَ الْأَوَّلَ خَبَّ ثَلَاثًا وَمَشَى أَرْبَعًا وَكَانَ يَسْعَى بِبَطْنِ الْمَسِيلِ إِذَا طَافَ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ
