The questioner:
Is it permissible for the one performing tamattu' to perform the sa'y of Hajj after he has performed the tawaf and sa'y of 'Umrah, and after he has exited the state of ihram from the 'Umrah, he performs the sa'y of Hajj?
The Shaykh:
No, this is not permissible. The one performing tamattu' performs sa'y after the tawaf of arrival. The one performing tamattu' has two tawafs and two sa'ys: a tawaf and sa'y for 'Umrah, and a tawaf and sa'y for Hajj. He does not perform sa'y before tawaf, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not perform sa'y before tawaf. It is not reported that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) performed sa'y before tawaf except after the tawaf of arrival, as was mentioned to you. After the tawaf of arrival, because it is a prescribed tawaf, it is permissible to perform sa'y after it. However, performing it before it in any other case is not permissible, even if someone issues a fatwa to that effect. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
The questioner:
The questioner says: If he has to perform Hajj.
The Shaykh:
Sa'y is permissible before tawaf due to the command of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to 'A'ishah when she menstruated. He said to her: "Do what the pilgrim does, except do not perform tawaf of the House until you are purified." It is not reported that she performed sa'y before tawaf. This is not established. If this had been permissible, he would have ordered her to perform sa'y before tawaf. Yes.
