وَمَنْ تَرَكَ مِنْ طَوَافِ الزِّيَارَةِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَشْوَاطٍ فَمَا دُونَهَا: فَعَلَيْهِ شَاةٌ.
Translation: Whoever omits three or fewer circuits of the principal Hajj tawaf owes a sheep offering.
Tawaf has seven circuits. If three were omitted, four were completed; if two were omitted, five were completed. The clause covers omission of up to three, after at least four have been performed.
A prescribed compensatory offering does not make deliberate omission an acceptable way of performing the rite.
