What is the ruling on one who begins the tawaf from the door of the Ka'bah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman began the tawaf for 'Umrah from the door of the Ka'bah and continued doing so in all her circuits, and she completed the 'Umrah. Does she owe anything, given that she has traveled?

Answer:
If she began the first circuit from the door of the Ka'bah, then her tawaf is deficient. She would have performed six circuits, and the first circuit from the door of the Ka'bah is deficient, so her tawaf is not valid. She must come and restart the tawaf from the beginning, perform the sa'y, and complete the 'Umrah anew.
