What is the ruling on one who enters the Hijr while performing tawaf?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I performed the obligatory Hajj as a mutamatti', and during the arrival tawaf, I entered the Hijr in one of the circuits out of ignorance. I then performed another tawaf afterwards. Is this correct? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Yes, your entering with the Hijr is a mistake; your entering with the Hijr is a mistake, because the Hijr is part of the Ka'bah. It is obligatory for you to circumambulate the entire Ka'bah, not to enter with the Hijr, because it is part of the Ka'bah. Therefore, your first tawaf is not valid, because it was incomplete. However, since you repeated the tawaf in the correct manner, praise be to Allah, you have fulfilled what is obligatory upon you.
