He was not able to leave after performing Tawaful-Wada

He was not able to leave after performing Tawaful-Wada"


Question :

A man performed Hajj and he made Tawaful-Wada' at night, but he was not able to leave from Makkah after the Tawaf. Therefore, he spent the night in Makkah until morning, then he traveled. So, what is the ruling?


Answer:

What is legislated is that the Hajj pilgrim's Tawaful-Wada' be when he is ready to depart from Makkah. This is due to the Hadith of Ibn 'Abbas that is agreed upon: "The people were commanded to make their last act at the House (the Ka'bah), but the matter was lightened for the menstruating woman."

As long as he performed the Tawaf with the intention to leave at night and he was not able to leave until morning, nothing is due on him for that, if Allâh wills. However, if he had repeated the Tawaf before leaving, that would have been safer.
