Circumambulating from inside the Black Stone
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa number ( 13966 )
Q: I went to perform the obligatory Hajj in one of the years, and after the Hajj ended, many months later, it became clear to me that I had circumambulated from inside the Black Stone , not around it, but I do not know which circumambulation it was, whether it was the circumambulation of the Corner or otherwise. Two years later, I went to perform 'Umrah, so I performed a circumambulation in place of the circumambulation that occurred from me during the Hajj. What is your opinion and what should be done? May Allah reward you.
A: What you did is sufficient, and praise be to Allah. If you had intercourse with your wife after the Hajj in which the circumambulation inside the Black Stone took place, and before the circumambulation you performed in place of the first one, then you owe a sacrificial animal to be slaughtered in Makkah and distributed to the poor. This sacrificial animal suffices for the 'Id sacrifice; because it is possible that the circumambulation you performed inside the Black Stone was the circumambulation of Ifadah, which is a pillar that prevents a woman from approaching [her husband] until she performs it, or it was the circumambulation of Farewell, which is obligatory, and leaving it requires a sacrificial animal, even if it is repeated after traveling. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
