Question:
Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy and blessings.
Answer:
Sa'y is postponed until the project is completed. Currently, there is ongoing work in the Sa'y area, with a project and construction taking place, so one waits until the project is finished. A person goes to al-Masjid al-Haram to pray in it, for one prayer in al-Masjid al-Haram is equivalent to one hundred thousand prayers in any other mosque. He performs tawaf around the Ka'bah and increases his tawaf, because tawaf around the House is an act of worship. He performs i'tikaf in al-Masjid al-Haram and sits in it. These are great acts of worship. 'Umrah is postponed until the opportunity arises, if Allah wills. Yes.
