Tawaf al-Nisa was created by Abu Yusuf
salam `alaykum,

What is the Zaydi view about what Imamis call the tawaf al-nisa, an obligatory tawaf that is performed at the end of the 'umra/hajj after most of the restrictions of ihram have been lifted save for the restriction of relations with ones spouse (hence the name)? I believe in Sunni fiqh they have something similar with the tawaf al-wida, but for instance do not believe it to be obligatory on the residents of Mecca.

wa alaykum as salaam!

Thanks for your question! One of our imams, Imam al-Mu'ayyad Billah, upon him be peace, said in his Sharh at-Tajreed that the tawaf an-nisa is named such because it is the last tawaf one makes before intercourse with one's wife is permissible.

And Allah knows best!

That's very interesting. It shows a clear parallel between the Ja'fari fiqh and Zaydi fiqh on this issue, which would seem to lend it greater support. JazakAllah khayr
