Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed Tawaf (of the Kaʿba) riding a camel (at that time the Prophet ﷺ had a foot injury). Whenever he came to the Corner (having the Black Stone) he would point out towards it with a thing in his hand and say, "Allahu-Akbar."  

البخاري:١٦٣٢حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ الْوَاسِطِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ طَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ وَهْوَ عَلَى بَعِيرٍ كُلَّمَا أَتَى عَلَى الرُّكْنِ أَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ بِشَىْءٍ فِي يَدِهِ وَكَبَّرَ

I informed Messenger of Allah ﷺ that I was sick. He said, "Perform Tawaf (of the Kaʿba) while riding behind the people." So, I performed the Tawaf while Messenger of Allah ﷺ was offering the prayer beside the Kaʿba and was reciting Surat-at-Tur.  

البخاري:١٦٣٣حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ زَيْنَبَ ابْنَةِ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ ؓ قَالَتْ

شَكَوْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنِّي أَشْتَكِي فَقَالَ طُوفِي مِنْ وَرَاءِ النَّاسِ وَأَنْتِ رَاكِبَةٌ فَطُفْتُ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي إِلَى جَنْبِ الْبَيْتِ وَهْوَ يَقْرَأُ بِالطُّورِ وَكِتَابٍ مَسْطُورٍ
