Leaving Makkah before the Farewell Tawaf
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The second question: The Farewell Tawaf. Is it permissible to leave Makkah before the Farewell Tawaf?
The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible, specifically in Hajj. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:. In the two Sahihs, from the hadith of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: The people were commanded, and this means the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded the people that their last visit should be to the House, except if it is difficult for the woman who is performing Hajj, meaning the woman performing Hajj. Yes.
The questioner:
And if he chooses the steps of the Farewell Tawaf.
The Shaykh:
He has committed a sin and upon him is a blood sacrifice, a blood sacrifice to be slaughtered in Makkah, a sacrificial animal like the 'Id sacrifice, a head of sheep, a one-year-old sheep, or from the offspring of a camel, or a share of a camel or a share of a cow. When Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated it as marfu' (traced to the Prophet) and as mawquf (stopping at a Companion): "Whoever leaves a ritual or forgets it," this requires shedding blood. The correct view is that it is mawquf, but it is in the ruling of marfu'. Yes.
The second question: The Farewell Tawaf. Is it permissible to leave Makkah before the Farewell Tawaf?
The Shaykh:
No, it is not permissible, specifically in Hajj. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
None of them should depart until the last thing he does is at the House
