What is the ruling on pausing between the circuits of tawaf to listen to the Friday sermon, then completing the remaining circuits after the prayer?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you. Is it valid for me, when performing the tawaf of 'Umrah, to complete four circuits, then sit and listen to the Friday sermon, and then complete the remaining circuits after the prayer?

Answer:
No, you do not sit for the sermon; you complete the seven circuits even if the preacher is delivering the sermon. However, if the iqamah is called, if the iqamah is called, then you stand and pray with the Muslims. When they finish the prayer, you resume the circuit from the Black Stone, build upon the previous circuits, and complete your tawaf. As for the sermon, you do not interrupt the tawaf for the sake of the sermon.
