The Ruling on Performing the Farewell Tawaf for 'Umrah in Place of the Farewell Tawaf for a Previous Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I left for Jeddah from Makkah after Hajj and did not perform the farewell tawaf. I returned five days later in the state of ihram for 'Umrah and intended that the farewell tawaf for the 'Umrah would also serve as the farewell tawaf for the previous Hajj. Does that suffice for the Hajj farewell?

Answer:
It is not obligatory to perform the farewell tawaf if you leave it out. 'Umrah does not have a mandatory farewell tawaf; it is not obligatory for it. If you perform it, there is no harm, and if you leave it out, there is no harm. As for Hajj, the farewell tawaf is obligatory for it.
