The Farewell Tawaf in Hajj and 'Umrah

Answer:
Regarding the farewell tawaf in Hajj, Allah made it part of Hajj. People used to depart from every direction, and in the case of Hajj, they were commanded to make their last visit to the House. Therefore, the farewell tawaf is obligatory only for Hajj; it is one of the obligations of Hajj, and it becomes obligatory by its omission. As for 'Umrah, the person has the choice: if he wishes, he performs the farewell tawaf, and if he wishes, he does not. It is not required of him, because there is no report that 'Umrah has a farewell tawaf. There is no report that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to perform 'Umrah and his Companions used to perform 'Umrah, and that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded them to perform a farewell tawaf, or that he (peace and blessings be upon him) performed a farewell tawaf. Yes.
