He died before he performed Tawaful-Ifadhah


Question :

The ruling on whoever completed the actions of bla except for Tawaful-Ifadhah, and then he died. Should Tawaf be performed for him or not?


Answer:

Whoever completed the actions of Hajj except for Tawaful-Ifadhah, then he died before that, Tawaf is not made for him. This is due to the statement of Ibn 'Abbas who said that while a man was standing (at 'Arafat) with the Messenger ﷺ of Allâh, he suddenly fell from his riding animal and it broke his neck and he died. That was mentioned to the Prophet ﷺ and he said:
"Wash him with water and Sidr, and shroud him in his two (Thram) garments. And do not apply fragrance to him and do not cover his head. For verily Allah will raise him on the Day of Resurrection while he is saying the Talbiyyah."

This was recorded by Al-Bukhari, Muslim and the Sunan compilers. The Prophet ﷺ did not order that Tawaf be made for him. Rather, he informed that Allâh will resurrect him on the Day of Resurrection while he is saying the Talbiyyah due to his remaining in his Ihram, as he did not perform Tawaf and Tawaf was not performed for him.
