Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Regarding a woman who began the sa'y of 'Umrah and missed a complete lap out of ignorance after her guardian was lost, what is required of her?
The Shaykh : If she finds her guardian nearby, she must make up the laps she missed, whether it is one or more. However, if she does not find him until after a period of time that breaks the continuity, she must repeat the tawaf from the beginning, because tawaf is a single act of worship that must be continuous. It is not permissible to interrupt it except if the obligatory prayer is established, or a funeral is present, or she becomes tired and rests briefly before resuming and completing it. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you.
