Question

AS SALAAMU ALAIKUM Mufti Saib. When performing Wajib or Nafl Tawaaf after completing the seventh circuit do I need to make the eight ISTILAM or just 7 ISLILAM JAZAKULLAH

Answer

It is Sunnah to commence and complete the Tawaaf with Istilaam. Hence, after completing the seventh circuit of Tawaaf, one will make Istilaam for the eighth time, whether one is in the state of Ihraam (i.e. one is doing the Tawaaf of Umrah/Hajj) or one is out of the state of Ihraam (i.e. one is doing a Nafl Tawaaf). (Shaami 2/498)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
