What is the ruling on the invalidation of wudu' during tawaf?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I performed two circuits, then my wudu' was invalidated, then I performed wudu' again, and I came to perform the remaining five circuits, and I completed the 'Umrah. What must I do now?
Answer:
You must put on the ihram garments again because you have not exited the state of ihram yet. So you put on the ihram garments and start the 'Umrah anew: you perform a complete tawaf, then you walk between al-Safa and al-Marwah, then you shave your head or shorten your hair. This is because if wudu' is invalidated during tawaf, the tawaf is invalid, just as if wudu' is invalidated during prayer, the prayer is invalid. Likewise, if wudu' is invalidated while you are performing tawaf, the tawaf is invalid, so it must be repeated from the beginning. You do not build upon the circuits in which the tawaf was invalidated, because they are invalid.
