AL-KAFI #502: HUKUM WANITA HAID MENINGGALKAN TAWAF WADA’, ADAKAH DIKENAKAN DAM?
Is a menstruating woman or a sick person liable to pay a dam for missing the farewell tawaf during umrah?

The farewell tawaf is obligatory in the Shafi'i school, and leaving it out normally requires a dam of one goat.

Summary
The farewell tawaf is obligatory in the Shafi'i school, and leaving it out normally requires a dam of one goat. A woman in her menses is granted a concession to skip it without any dam, but if she becomes clean while still in Mecca, she must perform it. For the sick, the severity matters: those who must be supported or carried, cannot sit in a wheelchair, or have a chronic illness are also given the concession.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Oleh itu, bagi perempuan yang kedatangan haid ketika ingin melakukan tawaf wada', maka diberikan keringanan baginya untuk tidak melakukan tawaf wada'.
