A man made a mistake during his sa'y in 'Umrah, starting from al-Marwah before al-Safa, then shortened his hair and wore sewn clothing

The questioner:
The sender, A.L. from Syria, says: I am an old shaykh who performed tawaf for 'Umrah, then did sa'y for seven rounds, but I started from al-Marwah, shortened my hair at al-Safa, and wore sewn clothing. What is the ruling on this? Please give us a ruling, may Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh:
The ruling is that your sa'y was not completed, and as long as it was not completed, it is not valid. This is because the tawaf of the House is seven rounds, starting from al-Safa and ending at al-Marwah. Seven rounds, where each round starts from al-Safa and ends at al-Marwah, until the seven rounds are completed. So you must repeat this sa'y; you must go back and repeat this sa'y, because the first sa'y was not completed. Yes.

The questioner:
And what about the fact that during that time, he committed some of the prohibitions of ihram, such as wearing sewn clothing and other things?

The Shaykh:
If he combined [the acts] during this period, then he owes a fidyah, which is slaughtering a sheep in Makkah and distributing it to the poor. However, if he did not combine [the acts], then he repeats the sa'y and owes nothing. Yes.

The questioner:
It must be done at the time of Hajj, not at any other time.

The Shaykh:
At any time, because it is for a Hajj that has already passed, so he should hasten to perform the sa'y. Yes.
