The ruling on traveling to al-Ta'if before the Tawaf of Ifadah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: Your Eminence the Shaykh, you know what happened to me in the tunnel, a tragic accident that caused the death of many pilgrims. The news has spread everywhere, and my mother is in al-Ta'if, and I do not know the phone number. I tried to call one of my relatives to reassure them about me, but I could not find anyone to answer their phone. Is it permissible for me to go to al-Ta'if to reassure them about me and then return immediately?

The Shaykh:
Complete it and go once, meaning that he comes one day, and stays and goes to her, go to her yourself, meaning that he comes one day after today, and goes seeking gentleness, and praise be to Allah, it is easy, in the day of haste,

The questioner:
Shaykh, all my relatives are here. The group, all of them are here.

The Shaykh:
He does not have to go once.

The questioner:
Frankly.

The Shaykh:
It is up to you, my son, a child of the jinn and a child of farewell and he went, and it is not up to you regarding your relatives, and perhaps he returns or perhaps he does not return, there is a difference.

The questioner:
Until now he has not completed the Tawaf of Ifadah. Huh? And he has not asked.

The Shaykh:
He has not yet done the Tawaf of Ifadah.

The questioner:
Yes, postpone, postpone the Tawaf of Ifadah.

The Shaykh:
Um. By Allah, if you do not go, even the Tawaf is better, and nothing is required of him except well-being, if Allah wills, have them call you by phone in Makkah, there are many phones in Makkah,

The questioner:
I tried, by Allah, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
He has not yet entered, he entered today, if Allah wills, and perhaps he will speak to him, do not go to speak to them while you have not completed it, a person should fear accidents, yes, it is safer for you not to go, it is safer,
