Leaving the Tawaf of Ifadah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q1: My father and my mother performed the obligatory Hajj about 26 years ago, but they did not perform the Tawaf of Farewell (Tawaf al-Ifadah) , although they completed the other rituals. What are the consequences for them as a result of this, and after such a long period? I should note that my father has passed away and did not perform Hajj again after that Hajj until he died. As for my mother, she has performed Hajj twice since that Hajj in which she did not perform the Tawaf of Farewell, but she is now ill and unable to travel to Makkah, and she says that their failure to perform the Tawaf of Farewell was due to ignorance on their part, not intentional?
A1: Regarding your deceased father who did not perform the Tawaf of Farewell, someone should perform the Tawaf of Farewell and the Tawaf of Departure on his behalf as a proxy, and that will suffice for him, if Allah wills. As for your mother, if she is able to come to Makkah to perform the Tawaf of Farewell that she left out of her first Hajj, then it is obligatory for her to do so, as her Hajj is not complete without it. If she is unable to come to Makkah due to a continuous inability, then she should appoint a proxy to perform the Tawaf of Farewell and the Tawaf of Departure on her behalf.
Q2: My mother has performed Hajj three times, including the one I asked about in the previous question. In all her Hajj pilgrimages, she appointed a proxy to perform the stoning on her behalf out of fear of the crowds. What are the consequences for her now?
A2: If your mother is unable to perform the stoning and appointed a proxy to stone on her behalf, then that will suffice for her, if Allah wills.
