Leaving the Farewell Tawaf and Shaving or Trimming the Hair in Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A Sudanese brother residing in Jeddah says: In the past Hajj, my father performed Hajj, O Shaykh. He was advanced in age and ignorant of some of the rulings of Hajj. The following mistakes occurred on his part: First, he did not perform the Farewell Tawaf because of his ignorance. Second, he did not shave or trim his hair.

Answer:
Yes. As for shaving or shortening the hair, he should shave or shorten it once he learns of it and it becomes clear to him; he should shave even if a period of time has passed, or shorten it. As for the farewell tawaf, he should slaughter a fidyah (ransom payment) in its place in Makkah and distribute it to the poor of the Haram. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good and bless you.
