How does one pray if the prayer time catches up with him while he is circumambulating in the state of idtiba'?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: If the prayer time catches up with a person while he is circumambulating in the state of idtiba', is it prescribed for him to cover his right shoulder for the prayer?

Answer:
No, it is not obligatory. If he is covering his left shoulder, that is sufficient. He remains in the state of idtiba' and prays; there is no harm in that, because he has not finished the tawaf, and idtiba' is maintained throughout the entire tawaf. Yes.
