For not performing Tawaf-ul-Wada`

Q 5: is Tawaf-ul-Wada` (circumambulation of the Ka`bah on leaving Makkah) sufficient for Tawaf-ul-ifadah (final obligatory circumambulation around the Ka`bah in Hajj) if Tawaf-ul-Ifadah is delayed to be performed with it? Is one Tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka`bah) enough or should I perform two, meaning, fourteen rounds and make the intention for every Tawaf?


A: If a pilgrim does not perform Tawaf-ul-Ifadah except upon leaving (Part No. 11; Page No. 301)  Makkah and does not perform Tawaf-ul-Wada`, it will be sufficient even if he performs Sa`y (going between Safa and Marwah) as if he is Mutamatti` (a pilgrim who starts with `Umrah then performs Hajj later during the months of Hajj). If he performs another Tawaf, this will be good and better for him.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
