then he is required to offer an expiation so long as he does not return from a nearby distance and perform the tawāf. If he continues on his journey until he has covered the distance at which the prayers are shortened or farther, he must slaughter a sacrificial animal for having left out the farewell tawāf.

Accordingly, if what you mean is that you have performed ḥajj several times and then gone back to your workplace in Jeddah without making the farewell tawāf, you must offer an expiation for every pilgrimage in which you failed to perform it. This is done by slaughtering a sheep and distributing its meat to the poor of Makkah—that is, the needy of the Sacred Precinct.

As for ʿumrah, the correct view is that it has no farewell tawāf; the farewell tawāf is required only for ḥajj.

Someone who dies before completing ʿumrah

Question: I am from one of the villages of Jazan. I travelled to Makkah in search of work, found employment there, settled, and brought my family to live with me. At first my mother was not with us. She later came to visit us and to perform an ʿumrah; however, while she was performing it—in the course of the saʿy—she stumbled as she was walking, fell to the ground, and was injured. We took her to the hospital, but she died as a result of the injury. I then completed that ʿumrah on her behalf. Was what I did correct or not?

What is my duty in this matter?

Answer: As for the first part of your question, namely that your mother passed away
