The ruling on the farewell tawaf for the one performing 'Umrah upon departure
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: We came and performed 'Umrah, and we completed it a week ago. Do we have to perform a farewell tawaf when we leave?
Answer:
The correct view is that 'Umrah 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 to do the farewell tawaf. He said:Sahih Muslim 1327. This is regarding Hajj, and he did not say it to those performing 'Umrah. That is, he did not say they should perform the farewell tawaf. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to perform 'Umrah, and the Companions used to perform 'Umrah, but it is not reported that he ordered those performing 'Umrah to perform a tawaf for farewell. Therefore, the farewell tawaf is specific to Hajj. However, if one performs a tawaf after 'Umrah for the sake of farewell, there is good in it as an increase in reward, but it is not obligatory. Yes. Ahm.

None amongst you should depart until he performs the last circumambulation round the House.
