The Condition of Ablution for Tawaf
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And with the same thing, is ablution obligatory for tawaf such that if one breaks his ablution during tawaf, he must repeat the ablution?
Answer:
Yes, purity is a condition for the validity of tawaf, just as purity is a condition for the validity of prayer. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he wanted to perform tawaf, performed ablution and said to A'ishah:Sahih al-Bukhari 1650 This indicates that purity from major and minor ritual impurity is one of the conditions of tawaf.

but do not perform Tawaf of the Ka`ba till you get clean (from your menses).
