Interrupting the Sa'y to Relieve Oneself
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: A person began the rounds of sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) between al-Safa and al-Marwah, and at the third round he had an urgent need to use the restroom. Is it permissible for him to go, relieve himself, and then continue from the third round, or does he have to start the rounds over from the beginning?
Answer:
He goes, relieves himself, returns, and continues. However, the round in which he stopped must be started over from the beginning. As for the rounds before that, they are valid, and he builds upon them. Yes.
