Is sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) obligatory for the complete exit from the state of ihram in Hajj?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Is sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) obligatory for the complete exit from the state of ihram in Hajj, or is stoning the pillars, shaving the head, and the tawaf of ifadhah sufficient?

The Shaykh:
What did you say? Is sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah)?

The questioner:
He says: Is sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) obligatory for the complete exit from the state of ihram in Hajj, or is stoning the pillars, shaving the head, and the tawaf of ifadhah sufficient, given that a person exited the state of ihram by doing so without sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah)?

The Shaykh:
No, the complete exit from the state of ihram is necessary. The complete exit from the state of ihram requires stoning the pillars, shaving the head, tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah), and sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah). The first exit from the state of ihram is achieved by stoning the pillars and shaving the head, for example, or by stoning the pillars, tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah), and sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah), even if he did not shave. Yes, tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah) and sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) are necessary; because they are one thing, part of the sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) is attached to the tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah), so it is necessary for the exit from the state of ihram.
