Ruling on the tawaf of a woman who slept in a car without performing wudu'

Question: The questioner, Umm Khalid, says: A woman became ritually pure, then she slept in a car while on her way to Makkah. Then she performed tawaf without performing wudu', and she remained in the state of tamattu' until Hajj, where she completed her Hajj and exited her state of ihram. What is required of her? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer: In the name of Allah, and praise is due to Allah. If the sleep that overtook her was of the nature of drowsiness, there is no blame on her, for drowsiness does not invalidate the wudu'. However, if she was deeply asleep in a sleep that invalidates the wudu', her ruling is the ruling of one who did not perform tawaf around the House. She becomes a qarin, and the tawaf of ifadhah and the sa'y of ifadhah are performed on behalf of the tawaf of 'Umrah and its sa'y, and praise is due to Allah.
