The Shaykh : The farewell tawaf is obligatory. The evidence for this is the hadith of Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him and his father)
The people were ordered to perform the Tawaf of the Ka`ba (Tawaf-al-Wada`) as the lastly thing, before leaving (Mecca), except the menstruating women who were excused. أمر الناس أن يكون آخر عهدهم بالبيت إلا أنه خفف عن الحائض
Sahih al-Bukhari 1755
His statement:
except the menstruating women who were excused إلا أنه خفف عن الحائض
Sahih al-Bukhari 1755
Yes, yes. Another piece of evidence, another piece of evidence, is that Umm Salama complained to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when traveling that she was ill, so he said to her:
He told me to perform the Tawaf behind the people while riding. طوفي من وراء الناس وأنت راكبة
Sahih al-Bukhari 464
Yes.
