Leaving the Farewell Tawaf Due to Severe Illness

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, I performed Hajj this year and fell severely ill, so I was unable to perform the Farewell Tawaf. I had made a condition, so is there anything required of me?

Answer:
Yes, you owe a fidyah (ransom payment) because the Farewell Tawaf is an obligatory part of Hajj. If one is unable to perform the tawaf, he is carried in a cart or on the shoulders of people, or in a vehicle that carries him; it is not a condition that you walk yourself. It is obligatory for you to have performed the tawaf while being carried. As long as you did not perform the tawaf, you owe a fidyah. Yes.
