What is the ruling on interrupting the voluntary tawaf due to heavy crowds and completing it the next day?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I entered the tawaf to perform the voluntary tawaf, so I began the tawaf, but I was unable to complete it due to the heavy crowds, so I left the tawaf, and the next day I completed the tawaf. Is this action valid?

Answer:
It is not obligatory to complete the voluntary tawaf. What is obligatory to complete is the tawaf of 'Umrah or the tawaf of Hajj. As for the voluntary tawaf, if you interrupt it, you owe nothing, and you are not required to complete it.
