Farewell Tawaf for 'Umrah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks and says: Shaykh, I perform more than one 'Umrah (the lesser pilgrimage) in the year, praise be to Allah, but I ask: does the 'Umrah have a farewell tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah)?
Answer:
The best farewell tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah) is the best, and it is not established that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed tawaf for 'Umrah as a farewell, nor did he command it. However, if one does, some scholars consider it obligatory, while others do not, because there is no specific evidence for it. But if one performs the farewell tawaf after 'Umrah, it is better. Yes.
