The obligation of one who interrupted tawaf for prayer and did not complete his round

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: I went for 'Umrah, and when I reached the sixth round, the Maghrib adhan was called. Only a few steps remained of the sixth round, but I was unable to complete it due to the crowd and the organization. After the prayer, I wanted to repeat the sixth round, but my husband refused and said, "Complete it from where you stopped." So, what is correct: repeating the round or completing it?

Answer:
The safest course, without doubt, is to repeat the round from the beginning, because you interrupted it for prayer. So the safest is to repeat it from the start. But you say that you were nearing the end, nearing the end of the round, meaning at the Black Stone or close to it, by one or two steps. This, if Allah wills, is complete; this is a complete round. Yes.
