Question:
A man is performing tawaf around the House and has completed some of the circuits, then he breaks his ritual purity. Does he go to renew his ablution, or does he complete the tawaf?
Answer:
Tawaf is like prayer. If one breaks his ritual purity, it is interrupted. He goes to perform ablution and starts it over from the beginning.
Q: Does he start over again, or does he complete it?
The Shaykh: No, he starts from the beginning, from the Black Stone. He starts the tawaf from the Black Stone. What he did before is invalid.
Q: Even if it was six circuits?
The Shaykh: Even if it was, even if it was, he repeats it all. It is an expiation for the one who broke his ritual purity in it, like prayer: if one breaks his ritual purity in it, he repeats it from the beginning.
