• Tawaf al-Ziyarah is a fardh.
• It can be performed any time, day or night, from 10 Zil Hijjah to
  the sunset of 12 Zil Hijjah. Usually it is convenient to do it on 11
  Zil Hijjah.
• Its procedure is similar to that of Tawaf of Umrah and it is
  essential that you have performed wudu.
• According to Sunnah this tawaf is to be performed after Rami,
  sacrifice and shaving or clipping of the hair, and every effort
  should be made to do that, but the Fard stands discharged even
  if Tawaf-e-Ziarat is performed prior to all these practices.
• As mentioned earlier, Halq or Qasr after Qurbani lifts all the
  prohibitions of Ihram but the private relations between man and
  wife are permitted only after this Tawaf.
• Until Tawaf al-Ziyarah is not performed, one cannot be intimate
  with one’s spouse.
