Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Regarding the farewell tawaf, if a person performs the tawaf for farewell and then goes to buy gifts for his family, is his farewell tawaf invalidated by this purchase?
Answer:
No, if he is buying travel necessities, buying things for the journey, his farewell is not invalidated, and gifts are among the travel necessities. This is because a traveler needs to make happy the children he is visiting with gifts. So this is one of the purposes of travel, and there is no harm in it, and his farewell is not invalidated by it. The farewell is only invalidated by trade. If they engage in trade, selling or buying in Makkah after the farewell tawaf, his farewell is invalidated. Or if he stays overnight in Makkah after the farewell tawaf, his farewell is also invalidated.
