Question:
This questioner asks, saying: May Allah reward you. A man converted to Islam several years ago and did not undergo circumcision, and it was said to him that he is unable to perform 'Umrah. Is this correct?

Answer:
He may perform 'Umrah, but regarding circumcision, praise be to Allah, it is easy today due to the availability of medical means; he goes and gets circumcised. As for Hajj, it is permissible even if he is not circumcised; his Hajj is valid. Yes.
