The questioner : He says: A man performed Hajj this year, and after the farewell tawaf he went down to the market and bought some necessities while being ignorant of the ruling. What is required of him?
The Shaykh : The scholars said: It does not harm if a person buys a need after the farewell tawaf on his way, whether it is from travel items, a gift for his family, or a book he needs. However, if he engages in trade, he must repeat the tawaf. Likewise, there is no blame on him if the time for prayer has entered. For example, if he finishes the tawaf with the adhan and remains until he prays, there is nothing wrong with that, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the farewell tawaf and then prayed the Fajr prayer. Similarly, if he performs the farewell tawaf and then arrives at the bus and finds that the group has not yet gathered, and he remains waiting for them, whether for an hour, two hours, or more, there is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
