Question:
What is the ruling on a woman who stops her tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka'bah) after completing two or three rounds to avoid the crowd of men?
Answer:
If she stops it out of necessity due to a crowd or because something happens to her, there is no harm. However, if it is the tawaf of Hajj, 'Umrah (the lesser pilgrimage), or the farewell tawaf, which is obligatory, she must perform a replacement tawaf. But if it is a voluntary tawaf, she is not required to perform a replacement. Yes.
