What is the ruling on not completing the sa'y (walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah) in 'Umrah due to the crowd?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : It appears that the time has run out, and we wish to be precise with the time. And praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions. This is the meaning. Peace be upon you.
The questioner : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. I performed 'Umrah for my wife through Madinah, and before residing with me in Jeddah, and after we settled, meaning after we lived there, we came from our house in Jeddah. Is there any harm? Second, my children, meaning from the infant to the oldest to the youngest, all entered the state of ihram, but in the sa'y, due to the Friday crowd, they were unable to complete the seven laps. Is there any harm?
The Shaykh : It is necessary. How much? It is necessary. How much? In the name of Allah, what is wrong with it? All of it that was not completed.
The questioner : Even if it is on another day.
The Shaykh : It does not mean anything, but they remain in the state of ihram.
The questioner : I do not know, all in the state of ihram.
The Shaykh : It does not contradict, the 'Umrah has not been completed until now, and I advise you, my brothers, I do not say my children, I wanted, my brother, you are tiring yourselves and they are tiring themselves, and otherwise it is not obligatory, the illness that occurred has occurred now, it does not come except...
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : They wear the forbidden and they want to complete this hour.
The questioner : Or he circumambulates and performs the sa'y anew.
The Shaykh : They do not add, but the sa'y, meaning they are in their shelter. And peace be upon you. May Allah keep you in good health.
