Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Ali ibn Yaqtin who has said the following: “I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about the castrated people and old women if Tawaf al- Nisa’ is obligatory upon them. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, it is obligatory on all of them.’” صحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (8/203))
