The ruling on making a condition when entering the state of ihram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh. At the beginning of the verse regarding the meaning of being prevented (ihsar), and regarding the ruling on being prevented which you explained, should the one in ihram make a condition at the time of his ihram, meaning that if something prevents him, he is not obligated to do anything because of it?

Answer:
They said that if a person has a cause that he fears will continue with him, such as having the onset of an illness and fearing that the illness will worsen and he will not be able to perform the Hajj, then he makes a condition. As for the one who is healthy when entering ihram, he does not make a condition, because the Companions did not make conditions. Rather, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said this to a woman who was complaining, meaning a sick woman who wanted to perform Hajj. She asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "I want to perform Hajj, and I find myself complaining of illness." Yes. He said (peace and blessings be upon him)
Perform Hajj and make a condition, saying: "O Allah, if something prevents me, then my place of exiting ihram is where it prevents me, for You have upon Your Lord what I have excepted."حجي واشترطي قولي اللهم إن حبسني حابس فمحلي حَيْثُ تَحْبِسُنِي فَإِنَّ لَكِ عَلَى رَبِّكِ مَا اسْتَثْنَيْتِ
or did you not make a condition? So if a person has a cause and fears that it will develop and fears that he will not be able to complete the Hajj and 'Umrah, then he makes a condition. As for the healthy person, he relies on Allah and does not make a condition, as the Companions did not make conditions. Yes.
