Question:
If a pilgrim performs 'Umrah and then leaves to visit his relatives outside the Haram, is the farewell tawaf obligatory for him? Is there any obligation on him in that regard?
Answer:
In the case of Hajj or 'Umrah? 'Umrah, 'Umrah does not have a farewell tawaf according to the correct view; rather, the obligatory farewell tawaf is for Hajj. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, as in the hadith of Ibn 'Abbas: "They were commanded"Sahih Muslim 1328a. So the farewell tawaf is obligatory for the one performing Hajj. As for the one performing 'Umrah, if he performs the farewell tawaf, there is no harm, and if he does not perform it, there is no blame on him. Yes.
