The questioner : A man performed Hajj to the Sacred House of Allah, completed all the rites, performed the farewell tawaf, and then performed sa'y between al-Safa and al-Marwah, believing that this is how Hajj is done, and this is from the way of...
The Shaykh : If he were to repeat it?
The questioner : A man says that he performed Hajj to the Sacred House of Allah.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : And he completed all the rites, performed the farewell tawaf, and then performed sa'y between al-Safa and al-Marwah, meaning after the farewell tawaf.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Seven times, believing that this is how Hajj is done, and this was due to ignorance. Is his Hajj permissible? Does he bear any sin? And what is obligatory for him to do?
The Shaykh : What is the date of this statement?
The questioner : Its date is in the fourth month, one thousand four hundred and one.
The Shaykh : The reality is that it is regrettable that this book asks about a matter that occurred four months ago.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : The first thing obligatory for a Muslim, if he intends to perform an act of worship, is to ask about its rulings from a trustworthy scholar of knowledge.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : So that he worships Allah with knowledge. If a person wants to travel to a country and does not know the way, you will find him asking about this road and how to reach it, and which road is the nearest and easiest. So how about the path to Paradise, which is righteous deeds? It is obligatory for a person, if he intends to perform an act of worship, to learn its rulings before performing it.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : This is one point. Second, if it happens that he performed it and a problem arose in it, let him hasten to address it. He should not come after four months to ask, because if he hastens, there is a benefit in that, which is knowledge, and another benefit, which is hastening to rectify the matter if he made a mistake in something.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : As for the answer to this question, we say that his sa'y after the farewell tawaf, believing that he had a sa'y to perform, does not affect his Hajj in any way, nor does it affect the farewell tawaf in any way. He performed an act that is not prescribed, but he was ignorant, so nothing is obligatory upon him.
The questioner : He is, of course, the time that has passed for the questioner; perhaps the mail was involved, and the program was also involved, because there are many questions. So perhaps the delay, but he should...
The Shaykh : We do not want it to arrive; I did not say when it arrived.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : I am asking for the date of the letter.
The questioner : Yes, you have done well.
The Shaykh : And I said that it was in the fourth month; this excuse that I mentioned is no longer acceptable.
The questioner : All right, you have done well, may Allah bless you.
This is from the confused, M.H., who says in her letter, and it is very brief.
