What is the ruling on a person performing 'Umrah who did not perform the sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) due to illness?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: A man performing 'Umrah circumambulated the Ka'bah seven times, but he was unable to perform the sa'y between al-Safa and al-Marwah. What is required of him? Please inform us; may Allah reward you.

Answer:
His 'Umrah is not complete; the sa'y remains obligatory upon him. He should go and perform the sa'y. He has already performed the tawaf (circumambulation), so the sa'y remains obligatory upon him. He should go and perform it, and he will find an opportunity, if Allah wills. He will find an opportunity in the sa'y area, as people are performing the sa'y. Do not be deterred from the sa'y; perform it with them. Praise be to Allah, and complete your 'Umrah. Yes.
