Leaving the farewell tawaf out of forgetfulness in a previous Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu Salim from Abha says: I performed Hajj seven years ago and left the farewell tawaf because I forgot, but I did perform the tawaf of ifadah. I went for Hajj again after that and completed it. What is required of me regarding the first time?

Answer:
You owe a fidyah (ransom payment) for the farewell tawaf, because it is an obligatory part of Hajj. Whoever leaves an obligatory act owes a fidyah. You slaughter a sheep in Makkah and distribute it to the poor of the Haram. Even if this Hajj was performed many years ago, the fidyah remains a debt on you. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
