Is the farewell tawaf part of 'Umrah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the farewell tawaf part of 'Umrah?

Answer:
We say no, 'Umrah does not have a farewell tawaf, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not order the people performing 'Umrah to perform a tawaf of farewell. Rather, he ordered the pilgrims performing Hajj to do so. The farewell tawaf is specific to Hajj, and it is one of the obligatory acts of Hajj. It is not reported from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he ordered the people performing 'Umrah to perform a tawaf of farewell. Yes.
