The Ruling on the Farewell Tawaf When Traveling
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I am leaving for Algeria today after 'Isha'. Is the farewell tawaf to be performed after Maghrib or after 'Isha?
Answer:
First, the farewell tawaf is for Hajj, and it is obligatory only for Hajj. As for 'Umrah, there is no obligatory farewell tawaf for it. However, if you wish to perform tawaf as a farewell to increase in good, you should do so when you are traveling, when you are about to board your vehicle. If you perform the farewell tawaf and then stay overnight in Makkah, this is not sufficient, and the farewell tawaf is not valid if you stay in Makkah. If you perform the farewell tawaf, you must leave Makkah.
