Chapter on the Ruling for One Who Forgets the Tawaf Al-Nisa

وَ رَوَى اِبْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلٍ نَسِيَ طَوَافَ اَلنِّسَاءِ قَالَ «إِذَا زَادَ عَلَى اَلنِّصْفِ وَ خَرَجَ نَاسِياً أَمَرَ مَنْ يَطُوفُ عَنْهُ وَ لَهُ أَنْ يَقْرَبَ اَلنِّسَاءَ إِذَا زَادَ عَلَى اَلنِّصْفِ ». وَ رُوِيَ: «فِيمَنْ تَرَكَ طَوَافَ اَلنِّسَاءِ أَنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ طَافَ طَوَافَ اَلْوَدَاعِ فَهُوَ طَوَافُ اَلنِّسَاءِ ».
Ibn Mahbub narrated from Ali ibn Abi Hamzah, from Abu Basir, from Imam Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, regarding a man who forgot to perform Tawaf al-Nisa. Imam عليه السلام said: "If he has completed more than half of the tawaf and then left forgetting to complete it, he may appoint someone to complete the tawaf on his behalf. In this case, he is permitted to approach women if he has completed more than half of the tawaf." It is also narrated: "For someone who has left out Tawaf al-Nisa, if they have performed Tawaf al-Wada‘ (the farewell tawaf), it is considered as fulfilling Tawaf al-Nisa."
