What is the ruling on the Hajj of one who is required to pay a fidyah (ransom payment) but did not pay it and did not fast?

The questioner:
He says: If the fidyah is not paid, is the pilgrim’s understanding of his Hajj counted for him, as is the case with prayer, or is his Hajj invalid, or will he be punished in the Fire?

The Shaykh:
His Hajj remains valid, but it remains incomplete, and he has left behind one of its obligatory acts. Therefore, the fidyah is required for one who is able to pay it, or fasting. The fidyah must be from what is acceptable for the udhiyah (the 'Id sacrifice), meeting the conditions of the udhiyah. It must be slaughtered and distributed within the Haram, inside the miles of the Haram, to the poor of the Haram. Yes.

The questioner:
His saying, “or will he be punished in the Fire,” Shaykh, is this a comment?

The Shaykh:
The punishment is with Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), but he has left behind an obligatory act, and he is under the will of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
