Does the 'Umrah count if the wife prayed inside Hijr Isma'il during the seventh circuit, then completed the tawaf from the inside out of ignorance, and is a sacrifice due upon her?
Circumambulating the Kaaba is one of the pillars of Umrah. It must be performed around the entire House seven times, including the Hijr and the Shadharwan. It is not permissible to circumambulate from inside the Hijr, as it is part of the House. The wife must refrain from the prohibitions of ihram, then return to Mecca to perform the circumambulation, the sa'i, and shorten her hair. She is excused if she committed prohibitions out of ignorance before knowing the ruling.
