Performing 2 tawaafs and then reading both waajibut tawaaf salaah afterwards

Q: Can a person perform 2 tawaafs and then read both waajibut tawaaf salaah afterwards?

A: If one makes tawaaf after fajr or after asr, then since it is not permissible to perform the waajibut tawaaf salaah at this time, it will be permissible for one to make two or more tawaafs and perform the waajibut tawaaf salaah for each tawaaf later on (i.e. after sunrise or after sunset).

However, apart from these two times, it is makrooh for one to perform two or more tawaafs and delay the waajibut tawaaf salaah for each tawaaf till the end.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
