The Expiation for Omitting the Farewell Tawaf

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This brother, the questioner Hamad, says: I performed Hajj several years ago, and I was fifteen years old at the time. I did not perform the farewell tawaf because I was unaware of it. Years have passed, and I hope you will answer me.

Answer:
Yes, the farewell tawaf remains obligatory upon you, but there is no way to make it up now. It is known that you have traveled, so it cannot be made up. However, you owe an expiation. You must slaughter a sheep in Makkah that is acceptable as a sacrificial animal, and distribute it among the poor of the Haram. Yes.
