The Arrival Tawaf in Ifrad

Question:
The questioner says: I performed Hajj, or rather, I entered the state of ihram with the intention of ifrad, and I descended to Mina on the seventh day. I was unable to perform the sa'y. What is the ruling regarding the tawaf of arrival and the ifrad?

Answer:
There is no harm in that. Performing the tawaf of arrival is better. Since you did not perform the tawaf, you have left off a recommended practice, not an obligatory one. So, you should perform the tawaf and the sa'y, if Allah wills, on the Day of 'Id or after the Day of 'Id. Regarding a sum of money, do I have a reward in this Hajj? You have a reward according to your intention. Your intention should not be for the money only; your intention should be for the worship, for yourself and for the one on whose behalf you are performing it. The money is merely a means to assist you in performing the Hajj, to assist you with the expenses of the Hajj. So, the money is secondary and not the original objective; it is merely secondary. The night prayer is a recommended practice, and the farewell tawaf is one of the obligations of Hajj. Yes.
