That which is forbidden to a pilgrim in is not forbidden to you. Thus, performing without ritual purity is valid. According to the Hanafis, expiation can be deferred, meaning it is permissible to delay it as long as one's life is not nearing its end. As for the Shafi'is, they differentiate between one who intentionally does so, in which case expiation is immediately due, and one who does not intend it, in which case expiation can be deferred. Completing tawaf without ablution, while knowing its obligation, necessitates immediate expiation. Some scholars mandate expiations immediately in all cases.
