Mistakenly facing one's chest towards the Ka'bah while making tawaaf
Question
While performing tawaaf during Umrah, my chest faced the Kabah. I cannot recall whether it was due to crowds pushing or another reason. I did not repeat that particular round of tawaaf.
1. Is my Umrah valid?
2. Should I repeat the Umrah or give dam/sadaqah?
Answer
1. Yes.
2. No.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
