What is the ruling on one who is delayed in staying overnight at Muzdalifah due to the road, and what is the ruling on one who did not perform the farewell tawaf, and does fasting suffice in place of the sacrificial animal?

The questioner:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. A listener says: Abu Ahmad says: I performed the obligatory Hajj in the year 1413, praise be to Allah, but I was unable to stay overnight at Muzdalifah because we were delayed on the road, along with those with me. When I left Makkah, I returned to my place of residence, al-Dawadimi, and I did not perform the farewell tawaf. Is my Hajj valid? Knowing that I have not yet traveled to my home country. Please guide us, may Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh:
As for the issue of not staying overnight at Muzdalifah due to your breakdown on the road, if this breakdown continued until the dawn appeared and you were unable to go to Muzdalifah, then you are excused in this. Praise be to Allah. But if you were able to go to Muzdalifah before the dawn appeared, but you were lazy and remained in your place on the pretext of the breakdown, then it is obligatory for you, in place of the overnight stay, to slaughter a fidyah (ransom payment) in Makkah and distribute it among the poor of the Haram.
The presenter:
All right.
The Shaykh:
Because staying overnight at Muzdalifah is an obligatory duty of Hajj, and when an obligatory duty is left, it is compensated with a sacrificial animal. As for the farewell tawaf
The presenter:
Yes, yes.
The Shaykh:
and your travel before the farewell tawaf to al-Dawadimi, this is a mistake on your part.
The presenter:
Mm.
The Shaykh:
The farewell tawaf is obligatory for the pilgrim if he intends to depart from Makkah; his last act with the House should be the tawaf, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded. It is an obligatory duty of Hajj, so it is obligatory for you to slaughter a fidyah in Makkah and distribute it among the poor of the Haram to compensate for this obligatory duty that you left. When the pilgrim intends to leave Makkah after Hajj, whether to his home country or to a place other than his home country, it is obligatory for him to perform the farewell tawaf. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. At the end of this question, Shaykh Salih has a question: If I have a sacrificial animal due upon me and I do not have money, does fasting suffice? Yes.
The Shaykh:
If you are unable to slaughter the hady (sacrificial animal) for the obligatory duty that you left, then it is obligatory for you to fast for ten days, fasting for ten days for leaving the overnight stay at Muzdalifah without an excuse, and fasting for another ten days for leaving the farewell tawaf.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good. Regarding the overnight stay at Muzdalifah, since the obligatory duty has fallen off him because he was unable to, as Shaykh Salih said in his message?
The Shaykh:
We have detailed it.
The presenter:
Good, good.
The Shaykh:
If the car breakdown continued, and you were unable to go to Muzdalifah until the dawn appeared, are you excused?
The presenter:
And in that case, the fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) falls off.
The Shaykh:
In that case, there is no hady (sacrificial animal) upon him at all.
The presenter:
Good, good.
The Shaykh:
And as for if they were able to go but were lazy and remained in their place, then the fidyah is upon them as I mentioned.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, may Allah reward you with the best reward.
