The ruling on donating the reward of tawaf to another person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on donating the reward of tawaf to another person? Some people, when they see someone wanting to go for 'Umrah, say: “Perform seven circuits and make the reward for me.”
Answer:
Some scholars hold that this is permissible. They say: If delegation is permissible in Hajj, then delegation is permissible in tawaf, because it is part of Hajj. If delegation is permissible for the whole, it is permissible for the part. However, it is not prescribed to do this, because there is no report of anyone performing tawaf on behalf of another; this has not been reported. Yes.
