Tawaful-Wada' is an Obligation from the Obligations of Hajj

Question :

I am a resident of and performed seven times, but I did not perform Tawaful-Wada' because some people said that the residents of Jeddah do not have to perform Tawaful-Wada. Is my Hajj correct or not? Please benefit me with an answer, and may Allâh reward you with good.

Answer:

What is obligatory upon the residents of Jeddah and those similar to them is that they do not leave from Hajj until after they have performed Tawaful-Wada'. This is like the people of At-Ta'if and others similar to them.

This is due to the generality of the Prophet's statement when he addressed the Hajj pilgrims:
"No one should leave until his last act is at the House (the Ka'bah)."

This was recorded by Muslim in his Sahih. It is also 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." Whoever leaves this off must slaughter an animal, which is a seventh of a camel or a seventh of a cow or a single sheep, which is a two-year-old goat or a year-old sheep. It is to be slaughtered in Makkah and distributed among the poor people of the Haram.

Along with this the person must make repentance and seek forgiveness from Allâh. He must make sincere intentions not to repeat this act again. In reference to the menstruating woman and the woman with postnatal bleeding, they are not obligated to perform Tawaful-Wada. Likewise is the case for the person performing Umrah. He is not obligated to perform Tawaful Wada' according to the most correct view of the scholars, and this is the view of the majority of the people of knowledge. Ibn 'Abdul-Barr mentioned that there is a consensus about this due to the many evidences for it. Among them is the fact that the Prophet ﷺ did not command those who removed their Ihram after their 'Umrah to perform Tawaful-Wada' when they left Makkah during his Farewell Hajj. Also from these evidences is that he commanded those people who had removed their Ihram in Makkah during the Farewell Hajj to leave from their places to Mina and then to 'Arafat, and he did not order them to perform Tawaful-Wada'. And Allâh is the Giver of success.
