Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If he performed tawaf and entered with the Hijr, such that part of the Hijr was on his right and the Ka'bah was on his left, entering from one door and exiting from another during the tawaf, and he was in a state of ihram, meaning: tawaf for 'Umrah?
Answer:
This is not valid. It is obligatory to perform tawaf from behind the Hijr, because most of the Hijr is part of the House. Therefore, the circumambulators must be behind it. Whoever performs tawaf from inside the Hijr, his lap is not valid. He must perform a lap in its place. If it was two laps, he must perform two laps, and so on until he completes it.
