Doubt regarding the number of circuits of tawaf

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what does the one performing 'Umrah or Hajj do when he is unsure of the number of circuits, whether it is six or seven?

Answer:
He builds upon certainty; he builds upon the lesser number. So if he is unsure of the number of circuits, he takes the lesser number because that is what he is certain of, and he completes it. So if the one performing the circuits is unsure whether he did six or seven, he makes it six and comes with the seventh.
