He forgot one of the circuits of Tawaaf al-Ifaadah

Question

If a pilgrim does Tawaaf al-Ifaadah, and he forgets one of the circuits, but he does not realize until after he has left al-Masjid al-Haraam, what is the ruling?

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

If the pilgrim does Tawaaf al-Ifaadah and forgets one of the circuits, and a long time has passed, then he should repeat his Tawaaf, but if only a short time has passed, he should make up the circuit that he missed. 

And Allah is the Source of strength. May Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.
