What is the ruling on the farewell tawaf in 'Umrah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, does 'Umrah have a farewell tawaf or not? Please inform us, may Allah bless you.

Answer:
The correct view is that it does not have a farewell tawaf; rather, the farewell tawaf is specific to Hajj. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) only ordered the pilgrims performing Hajj not to depart until they had bid farewell to the House, so that their last visit to the House would be the farewell tawaf. It is not reported from him that he ordered those performing 'Umrah to bid farewell with a tawaf. Yes.
