Fatwa #245814 March 2001United States of America

I am working and living in Jeddah, around 100km away from Makkah and Muna. When I perform Haj, is it compulsory to do 'Tawaf al widah' or not in order to complete my hajj?

Answer

Since Jeddah is outside the Meeqaat, you will have to make Tawaaf-e-Widaa in Hajj.
