Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for a pilgrim to perform sa'y before tawaf on the day of Eid?
Answer:
No, it is not permissible. The man who said to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), “Why did I not…?” did so out of ignorance, and the Messenger excused him due to his ignorance. As for a person who intentionally performs sa'y before tawaf, no.
