What is the ruling on delaying shaving or shortening the hair due to an excuse?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: While performing 'Umrah, after I finished the tawaf and at the end of the sa'y, I became tired and went to rest. I did not shave or shorten my hair because of the fatigue. What is required of me?

Answer:
You owe nothing. It is permissible to delay shortening or shaving until you rest and the fatigue goes away, then you shorten or shave. There is no obstacle, but you must keep the ihram clothes on you until you shave or shorten. There is no obstacle in you resting or even sleeping until you get your rest, as long as you keep the ihram clothes on you, because the 'Umrah is not yet complete. Yes.
