Does the farewell tawaf prevent a person from returning to the Haram?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : And this questioner says: Does the farewell tawaf obligate the pilgrim not to return to the House, or not?
The Shaykh : Yes, the farewell tawaf must be the last of a person's affairs. When he has finished everything and wants to get in the car, he should perform tawaf, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih Muslim 1327 And he (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) performed tawaf for farewell at the end of the night, prayed Fajr, and then walked. For example, if we assume that the departure time is immediately after the Fajr prayer, we say: Perform tawaf for farewell before the Fajr adhan, then pray Fajr and rely on Allah. But if you perform tawaf for farewell after Maghrib and you do not intend to travel until the morning, that is not permissible. If you do that, you must repeat the tawaf, and the first tawaf becomes a recommended practice.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : Yes, the farewell tawaf must be the last of a person's affairs. When he has finished everything and wants to get in the car, he should perform tawaf, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
None amongst you should depart until he performs the last circumambulation round the House.
