My wife was in a state of ritual purity and she doubted whether her ablution had been broken

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q2: When we went for the Farewell Tawaf, we performed the circumambulation on the roof of the Grand Mosque due to the severe congestion around the Ka'bah . After we finished the Farewell Tawaf, since our Hajj was Hajj al-Qiran, I asked my wife whether her Tawaf was performed in a state of ritual purity or not. She was hesitant and did not know if she was in a state of ablution or not. Given that the bus driver who was to take us back to Ta'if had set a specific time limit for our return, which prevented my wife from repeating the Tawaf, in addition to the fatigue we were experiencing due to the distance on the mosque roof and the injuries we sustained in our feet, is there anything required of us in this matter?
A2 : If your wife was in the state described, in a state of ritual purity, and she doubted whether her ablution had been broken, then the original state is purity, and her Tawaf is valid. If she was not in a state of ritual purity and she doubted whether she had performed the ablution, then the original state is that she was not in a state of purity, so her Tawaf is not valid. It is obligatory for her to perform the ablution and then repeat the Tawaf. Since you traveled to Ta'if before she repeated the Tawaf, it is obligatory for her to offer a sacrificial animal to be slaughtered in Makkah and distributed to the poor. This is because the Farewell Tawaf is an obligatory part of Hajj, and she left it because she performed it without being in a state of purity, so it was not valid.
And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
