Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He says: Is it recommended for a person to pray two rak'ahs after the farewell tawaf?
The Shaykh : It appears that it is recommended to pray two rak'ahs after the farewell tawaf, because when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) bid farewell to the House, he prayed the Fajr prayer, and he did not make the prayer before the tawaf; rather, he performed the tawaf first and then prayed second. The scholars have mentioned a general rule, stating that after every tawaf, there are two rak'ahs.
