The ruling on tawaf if one’s wudu’ is broken during it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward our honorable Shaykh with the best reward. Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says that he was performing tawaf and his wudu’ was broken during the tawaf, so he went out and performed wudu’. He asks: Should he complete the tawaf or start a new tawaf?
Answer:
If one’s wudu’ is broken during tawaf, the tawaf is invalid, just as if it were broken during prayer, the prayer is invalid, because ritual purity is a condition for the validity of tawaf, just as it is a condition for the validity of prayer. And in the hadith: Yes. And it is not reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed tawaf except while in a state of wudu’. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Aishah when she had her menstruation: . So if a person’s wudu’ is broken while he is performing tawaf, his tawaf is considered to have been interrupted, so he goes out, performs wudu’, and starts the tawaf anew. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.

Tawaf around the House is a prayer, except that you speak in it.
الطواف بالبيت صلاة غير أنكم تتكلمون فيه.Do what the pilgrim does, except do not perform tawaf around the House until you become pure.
