What is the ruling on one who leaves the farewell tawaf?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He says: He left Makkah and did not perform the farewell tawaf after the rites of Hajj. Does he owe anything?
The Shaykh : If the pilgrim leaves Makkah without performing the farewell tawaf, he has committed a sin, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered that whoever leaves Makkah should make his last visit to the House. According to the majority of scholars, he owes a fidyah, which is slaughtered in Makkah and distributed among the poor, because it is a blood expiation. It is not permissible for him to eat any of it.
