The questioner:
May Allah reward you. This is a Sudanese resident in the Kingdom, the brother Muhammad Ali. He says: I am an elderly man and I constantly suffer from stomach ailments, such as passing gas, may Allah reward you, and the like. This year I went for Hajj, and during the arrival tawaf, in the third lap, I passed gas, and I did not continue the tawaf. What is the ruling regarding what is required of me? May Allah reward you with good. And I continued the tawaf.
The Shaykh:
It is not permissible to perform tawaf while in a state of ritual impurity, whether one was in a state of impurity from the beginning and did not perform wudu', or one was in a state of purity and began the tawaf, and then a state of impurity occurred and the wudu' was broken. In that case, his tawaf is invalid, because one of the conditions for the validity of tawaf is that the person be in a state of ritual purity. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would perform purification when he intended to perform tawaf. The evidence for this is that he (peace and blessings be upon him) would pray the two rak'ahs after the tawaf, and there is no doubt that prayer is not permissible except with wudu'. This indicates that he (peace and blessings be upon him) was in a state of purity. Therefore, tawaf is not valid except with ritual purity. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. So his tawaf is...
The Shaykh:
His tawaf is not valid. Whoever becomes in a state of ritual impurity during the tawaf, it is obligatory for him to exit the tawaf area, perform wudu', and restart the tawaf from the beginning, exactly the same as one who becomes in a state of impurity during the prayer.
