The questioner:
In one of the years, I performed the obligatory Hajj as a Mutamatti', and I completed the 'Umrah. Then I exited the state of ihram and entered the state of ihram for Hajj from Makkah. I headed to Mina and performed all the rites of Hajj, including staying overnight, standing at 'Arafah, stoning the pillars, shaving the head, and so on. One of the students of knowledge was with me, and he advised me to perform the Tawaf of Ifadah on the second day after the festival, so that the Tawaf of Ifadah and the Tawaf of Farewell would be in one year. I actually went to Makkah on the second day and performed the Tawaf. We then left Makkah to return to our country. After a period of time, a doubt came to me: Did I perform the Sa'y or not? My question is: Is my Hajj complete in the case of this person? Is it complete if I did not perform the Sa'y? What is required of me for my Hajj to be complete? Do I have to repeat the Hajj? Or how should I act? May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh:
It suffices for the Tawaf of Farewell. So this is correct. The Tawaf of Ifadah suffices for the Tawaf of Farewell, provided that it is the last of your actions, such that you travel after it; because it is true that you are leaving the House as your last act. If you delay the Tawaf of Ifadah, and you understand that you are traveling with the virtue of the Ifadah, then it suffices for the Farewell. As for the doubt you mentioned regarding the Sa'y, if it is more likely in your mind that you did not perform the Sa'y, then it is obligatory for you to return to Makkah and perform the Sa'y for this past Hajj. And if you had intercourse with your wife during this period, then it is obligatory for you to slaughter a fidyah; you slaughter a sheep in Makkah and distribute it to the poor there, along with your Sa'y. However, if what happened to you is merely a waswas (whispering doubt) or suspicion, then do not pay attention to it.
The presenter:
I mean, eat it.
The Shaykh:
The worship, or after the completion of the worship, unless it reaches the level of preponderant suspicion.
The presenter:
It borrows from its pillars.
The Shaykh:
May Allah bless you and reward you well.
