The Ruling on the Farewell Tawaf for the One Performing 'Umrah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Al-Hawini: What is the ruling on the farewell tawaf in 'Umrah? And 'Umrah is not like Hajj regarding the farewell tawaf, in that he (peace and blessings be upon him) interlaced his fingers in Hajj and 'Umrah, in the mention that 'Umrah entered into Hajj until the Day of Resurrection.
The Shaykh : It seems the question is not coherent, with one end not matching the other? He is asking about the ruling on the farewell tawaf in 'Umrah, but what does it mean that the Messenger (peace be upon him) interlaced or did not interlace? Is it possibleThe questioner : for him to clarify his question?
As for the answer, we do not find in the Sunnah anything that obligates us to say that the farewell tawaf is obligatory for the one performing 'Umrah only; rather, this tawaf is obligatory for the pilgrim performing Hajj. If the rest of the question is clarified, may AllahThe questioner : clarify it, otherwise it goes to waste.
Other than that?
The questioner : Is the farewell tawaf prescribed for the one performing 'Umrah? Is the farewell tawaf prescribed for him?
The Shaykh : And what did I just answer?
The questioner : It is not obligatory.
The Shaykh : Yes, it is not prescribed.
The questioner : It is not prescribed.
