The ruling on one who performed Hajj and did not pray the two rak'ahs of tawaf?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Also, among the messages from the brother Abu Usamah is one that revolves around tawaf. He says that after the farewell tawaf, he did not pray the two rak'ahs at the Maqam or behind the Maqam. The time at that moment was the 'Asr prayer, so after the tawaf we prayed 'Asr, and we walked from Makkah to al-Madinah al-Munawwarah.

Answer:
Yes, the two rak'ahs of tawaf are not obligatory; rather, they are among the recommended practices (sunnah) of tawaf. So if he left them, he owes nothing, and his tawaf is valid. Yes.
