"Is one sacrificial animal sufficient for someone who went to Medina twice during one Hajj, and is he obligated to offer a sacrificial animal for each time he went, and what is the ruling on someone who goes to Medina daily due to the nature of his work and did not perform the farewell Tawaf? "

"The Hanbali school of thought and the sound position according to the Shafi'is is that the Farewell Tawaf (Tawaf al-Wada') is an independent act of worship, required of everyone who wishes to depart from Mecca, whether a pilgrim or not. Thus, a Meccan is required to perform it when traveling for a need and then returning. According to the position of obligation, abandoning it entails a sacrificial offering (dam). However, since you sought a legal verdict (fatwa) from a knowledgeable person and he issued a fatwa stating that it is not obligatory upon you, there is no blame upon you in acting according to his fatwa, and nothing is required of you for acting upon His saying, ""So ask the people of knowledge if you do not know,"" especially since a group of scholars are of the opinion that the Farewell Tawaf is not obligatory upon the Meccan.
