The ruling on the Hajj Pilgrim traveling to Jeddah before performing Tawaful-Wada'


Question :

Is it permissible for the Hajj pilgrim to travel to Jeddah without performing Taraful Wada', and what is due on the person who does that?


Answer:

It is not permissible for the Hajj pilgrim to leave from Makkah after Hajj until after he has performed Tawaful- Wada'. This is due to the statement of the Prophet ﷺ :
"No one should leave until his last act is at the House (the Ka'bah)."

This was recorded by Muslim.

It is recorded in the two Sahihs from a Hadith of Ibn 'Abbas that he said: "The people were commanded to make their last act at the House (the Ka'bah), but the matter was lightened for the menstruating woman." Therefore, it is not permissible for the people of Jeddah or the people of At-Ta'if or others beside them to leave Makkah after Hajj until after they have performed Tawaful-Wada'. So, whoever travels before performing Tawaful- Wada', he must slaughter an animal, because he has left off an obligatory act.

Some of the people of knowledge have said that if he returns with the intention of performing Tawaful-Wada', that is sufficient for him and he does not have to slaughter an animal. However, this view is doubtful and it is safer for the believer, as long as he has traveled a considerable distance and he has not made Tawaful-Wada, for him to slaughter an animal to make his Hajj complete.
