Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This person is asking about performing 'Umrah in an irregular manner, meaning if the authorities prevent you from entering the state of ihram, like the regulation that was issued stating that one who performs Hajj is not allowed to perform Hajj again until after a certain period, in order to alleviate the congestion on people. That is what I know regarding Hajj, but no specific groups have been designated for 'Umrah as there are for Hajj.
Answer:
The point is, if the government prevents entering the state of ihram, do not enter the state of ihram, my brother. Do not expose yourself to disobeying the one in authority. Do not expose yourself to disobeying the one in authority and violating the regulations. Yes.
