As for the circumambulation itself, if someone performs only six circuits, their 'Umrah is incomplete, and they must return to Mecca to complete it. If they return as a pilgrim, their most recent 'Umrah is a completion of the first one, and their entering into for a subsequent 'Umrah is void because they are still in the state of the first ihram. It is also necessary to re-solemnize the marriage contract if it was concluded while they were in the state of ihram.
