The ruling on one who began 'Umrah and did not complete it

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I performed Hajj one year, and I completed the Hajj fully, performing it as ifrad, of course. I had a companion with me who said, “Let’s do 'Umrah.” May Allah prolong your life, we entered ihram from the miqat on the road to Madinah, and we went back and did the 'Umrah. I intended this for the person I had performed Hajj for. And… and… for the person I had performed Hajj for. Yes, and we did the tawaf, may Allah prolong your life, and the sa'y, and I had one lap left, but I got tired, so I left and did not complete it. What is required of me, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
No, the 'Umrah was not completed. Since you entered ihram for it, you are required to complete it. You are required to return to Makkah and perform the sa'y. Did you fall short in the sa'y or the tawaf? Peace be upon you.

The questioner:
No, in the sa'y. Just one lap.

The Shaykh:
Yes, you are required to return and complete it, and repeat the sa'y from the beginning, because the order was missed and the continuity was broken. So you repeat it from the beginning, and then you shorten your hair to complete your 'Umrah. If you had sexual intercourse during this period, you are also required to slaughter a sheep in Makkah and distribute it to the poor of the Haram. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
