What is the ruling on one who begins the tawaf from the Station of Ibrahim?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man began his tawaf from the Station of Ibrahim, circled seven times, then performed the sa'y and shaved his head. Does he owe anything?

Answer:
If his tawaf is valid, his tawaf is incomplete. The beginning of the tawaf is from the Black Stone. To the Black Stone. From stone to stone. This is the condition. If part of the condition is missing, it is not completed until he comes with a complete condition instead of the incomplete one. So he must complete his tawaf. His shaving is not valid. He completes his tawaf, then he puts back the ihram garments if he has taken them off, and he completes his tawaf, then he shaves or shortens his hair, and by that his 'Umrah is completed. Are you sure you are happy? Yes. We repeat the sa'y because the sa'y is not valid except after the qada' (making up a missed act of worship).
