If one enters the state of ihram for 'Umrah by reciting the talbiyah without wearing the ihram garments, is the 'Umrah obligatory upon him?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q1: Is 'Umrah obligatory for a person simply by reciting the talbiyah, even if he has not entered the state of ihram?
A1: Entering the state of ihram is the intention to enter the rites of pilgrimage, not merely wearing the two garments. If one intends by the talbiyah to enter the rites, he becomes in the state of ihram, and thus the 'Umrah becomes obligatory upon him, and he must perform it. It is not permissible for him to exit the state of ihram except if he is prevented from completing it or if he had made a conditional ihram and something occurred that prevented him from completing his 'Umrah.
