What is the ruling on continuity between tawaf and sa'y?

Question : This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh! I performed tawaf for 'Umrah, then went and performed six rounds of sa'y. Due to an illness in my knee, I sat down to rest on al-Safa for a few minutes, then I got up and completed the seventh round. Is there anything required of me?

Answer : He owes nothing. This man was tired and sat on the bench, so there is nothing required of him. This is based on the saying of Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He: and His saying, Mighty and Majestic: and His saying, the Exalted: So if a person becomes tired during sa'y and sits to rest, then resumes, meaning he completes it, there is no harm. Even if he sits at the beginning of every round, sitting at al-Marwah for the first round, and at al-Safa for the second round, and so on, there is no blame on him.
But I have a question now: A man performed tawaf at the beginning of the day, got tired, went to his house, rested, and slept. Then he came back after the afternoon prayer and performed sa'y. What do you say? Is it permissible or not permissible? Yes, what is your evidence that it is not permissible? Well done, may Allah bless you. Our brother says this is not permissible. The evidence says that continuity between sa'y and tawaf is required. Is every required thing a condition?
Answer as a group? No, so be happy, my brother, with good news. There is no harm in performing tawaf at the beginning of the day and sa'y at the end of the day. However, the most complete and best is undoubtedly for sa'y and tawaf to be continuous. As for whether that is a condition, it is not a condition. So in the example we mentioned, a man performed tawaf at the beginning of the day, then went to his house, rested, and slept, and came after the afternoon prayer and performed sa'y. We say there is no blame on him, and his sa'y is valid and his 'Umrah is valid. But he still has to do, after the sa'y, what? The shaving and the shortening.
Shaving or shortening? Shaving is of the entire head, and shortening is also of the entire head. Even though some scholars say it is sufficient to shorten even three hairs, but this is wrong because meaning those who have shortened their heads. So the shortening must cover the entire head, just as shaving covers the entire head. And I have seen a man performing sa'y between al-Safa and al-Marwah who had shaved half of his head lengthwise, a complete shave. The right side was white with no hair, and the other side had hair like this. Do you see now? So I said, what is this? This is qaza' (shaving the head in a way that leaves a bald spot). He said, this is for yesterday's 'Umrah, and this is for today's 'Umrah. Our master, the Shaykh, meaning, do you see what happened? So we say shaving includes the entire head, and shortening includes the entire head. May Allah reward you.
