Question

Nine years ago, I did ‘umrah; I did tawaf but did not do sa‘i. I did ‘umrah two more times, and did not do sa‘i. Four years ago, I began to pray regularly, and I got married and was blessed with a child. What should I do with regard to the marriage contract?

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

I put this question to our shaykh, ‘Abd ar-Rahmaan al-Barraak (may Allah preserve him), and he replied:

He has to repeat his marriage contract. As for his failing to do sa‘i, it is sufficient for him to offer a fidyah (a sacrifice) for each sa‘i that he omitted to do.

And Allah knows best.
