Question:
Is the farewell tawaf obligatory for the one performing 'Umrah if his 'Umrah is voluntary?
Answer:
'Umrah does not have a farewell tawaf, but if one performs a farewell, it is good. It is not obligatory for 'Umrah; the farewell is obligatory for Hajj, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not order the people performing 'Umrah to do a farewell, he only ordered the pilgrims performing Hajj. If the one performing 'Umrah does a farewell, there is no harm, and indeed it is good. But if he leaves and does not do a farewell, he owes nothing.
