Can I perform fewer than seven Tawaf?

The standard for voluntary Tawaf is that it consists of seven circumambulations, and anything less than that is not customary. Nevertheless, it has been noted that Al-Khadim, a distinguished scholar, remarked that "it is acceptable for an individual to perform fewer than seven rounds." {Hashyat Al-Jamal, a Shafie` text}
