What is the ruling on performing sa'y on the day of 'Id while delaying tawaf until the thirteenth and fourteenth days?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah guide you and protect you, O honorable Shaykh: Is it permissible to perform sa'y on the day of 'Id and delay tawaf until the thirteenth day? And is it permissible to delay tawaf until the fourteenth, sixteenth, or fifteenth day? What is your opinion regarding one who performs Hajj every year, when someone tells him: "This is a form of harm to the Muslims, so do not perform Hajj every year"? Is this statement valid or not? They argue that harming the Muslims is a major crime and is not permissible.
The Shaykh : How many questions is this? Our rule is that there is only one question.
This person is asking: If one performs sa'y on the day of 'Id and delays tawaf al-ifadah until his departure so that it suffices for him as tawaf al-wada', we say: There is nothing wrong with this. This is because the order between sa'y and tawaf in Hajj is not obligatory. The evidence for this is that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood on the day of 'Id, and people asked him about advancing or delaying things. He was not asked about anything being advanced or delayed except that he said:.
Likewise, if he delays both tawaf and sa'y until his departure, there is nothing wrong with it. This is because sa'y after tawaf does not prevent it from being his last farewell to the House. However, it is obligatory for him, if he delays tawaf al-ifadah until his departure, to intend either tawaf al-ifadah only, or tawaf al-ifadah and tawaf al-wada'. As for intending tawaf al-wada' only, it does not suffice for tawaf al-ifadah. This is because the one who delays tawaf al-ifadah, which is the tawaf of Hajj, until his departure, either intends both, in which case he gets what he intended; or he intends tawaf al-ifadah only, in which case it becomes tawaf al-ifadah and tawaf al-wada' is dropped; or he intends tawaf al-wada', in which case he gets tawaf al-wada' but it does not suffice for tawaf al-ifadah. In that case, he returns without having completed his Hajj. So you must pay attention to this and remind your brothers. This is the answer to your question. Yes.
The questioner : I say the second question is important.
The Shaykh : What?
The questioner : The second question is important. May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : Okay, ask when it is your turn.

Do it, and there is no blame on you.
