Question:
He says: What do you advise me to do, since I have not yet performed the obligatory Hajj, and I am now forty years old? Which type of Hajj should I perform?
Answer:
The best is tamattu' (combining 'Umrah and Hajj with a break between them). You enter the state of ihram for tamattu', so you perform 'Umrah first. When you arrive in Makkah, you come out of ihram, then you enter the state of ihram for Hajj on the Day of Tarwiyah, the eighth of Dhu al-Hijjah, and you perform Hajj. You will owe a fidyah (ransom payment), the fidyah for tamattu'. Yes.
