Reducing or Increasing Tawaf

Article ١٩٩- Whenever a pilgrim reduces some of Tawaf deliberately and sequence passes then Tawaf is invalidated and Tawaf should be performed again, but if he/ she compensate that amount before passing the sequence then Tawaf is correct; and it is possible to stop Mustahab or obligatory Tawaf and start it again from the beginning.

Article ٢٠٠- Whenever a pilgrim performs Tawaf more than seven rounds deliberately then Tawaf is invalidated, even if he/ she had the intention of doing this from the beginning or makes the intention of adding something after that, and even this amount is one round or more or less, but if this added distance has been wended without the intention of Tawaf, for example going the first round with crowds in order to be familiar with Tawaf and start it from al- Hajar Al- Aswad, then this act has no problem.

Also it had no problem if the pilgrim cannot leave the place because of congestion of people after completing Tawaf and walk a distance with crowd without the intention of Tawaf.
