Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, if a person enters Makkah without the intention of performing 'Umrah, and then performs tawaf around the House, what is the ruling?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, but he misses out on a great reward. He should, when he arrives in Makkah, enter the state of ihram from the miqat and perform the 'Umrah. This is what he should do; this is an opportunity for him that he should not waste. Yes.
