The ruling on one who begins his tawaf from the Yemeni Corner and ends with it
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A man performed 'Umrah and began his tawaf from the Yemeni Corner, ending there. What is required of him?
Answer:
He must repeat the tawaf if the interval was long. If the interval was short, he adds one lap in place of the lap he left between the two corners. However, if the interval was long, he must repeat the tawaf, because he only performed six laps.
Q: But what if he traveled?
A: He returns. He must return if the tawaf was obligatory for 'Umrah or Hajj. But if the tawaf was voluntary, his matter is easy.
Q: Tawaf for 'Umrah?
A: If it was the tawaf of 'Umrah or the tawaf of Hajj, he must return. He remains in a state of ihram until he returns. If he had intercourse, he owes the expiation for intercourse. He remains in a state of ihram until he returns.
Q: And if he traveled, must he return?
A: Yes, even if he did. Allah has made it obligatory upon him: [al-Baqarah: 196].
Q: Even if he is in a foreign country?
A: Even if he is in America, he returns.
Q: Or does he appoint a proxy if he is unable?
A: No, he would be considered one who is prevented (mahsur). He falls under the category of the one who is prevented. If it is not facilitated for him, he is considered one who is prevented. He does what the one who is prevented does: he slaughters a sacrificial animal, and he shaves or shortens his hair and exits the state of ihram. The Hajj remains a debt upon him, or the 'Umrah if it was the 'Umrah of Islam, or the Hajj of Islam.
Q: Does he slaughter the sacrificial animal in his location?
A: In his location. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) slaughtered it in his location, in the non-sacred area (al-Hal).

And complete the Hajj and 'umrah for Allah
