The ruling on interrupting sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) for prayer and then completing it

Question:
Yes. I saw the sa'y of Hajj, and when I had completed four laps, the Fajr adhan was called, and I did not complete the fifth lap. After the prayer, I completed the fifth lap, but I did not start from al-Marwah; rather, I started from the place where I was standing when the adhan was called. What is the ruling?

Answer:
The scholars have asked about the one who interrupts a lap in the middle of it: does he return to the beginning of the lap in tawaf and sa'y, or does he not return, or is it sufficient for him to continue from where he is? The correct view is that it is sufficient if he continues from the place where he was interrupted; this is sufficient in tawaf and sa'y. He continues from the place where he interrupted the lap for the sake of the prayer. If he does so, there is no harm; his tawaf is valid and his sa'y is valid. Yes.
