Tawaf
May a pilgrim return to the hotel after the farewell tawaf and pray Zuhr and Asr combined early (jamak taqdim) in the room?
Answer in brief
Praying Zuhr and Asr combined early (jamak taqdim) in the hotel room after the farewell tawaf is permitted and does not invalidate the tawaf. A pilgrim may return to the room, bathe, change clothes and pray, then go straight to the lobby to wait for the bus. Lying down on the bed, even briefly to rest, is not allowed because it invalidates the farewell tawaf and a dam becomes due.
Summary written by DHUMY from the Malay original and checked against it.
