Question:
He says: My wife intended to perform 'Umrah while she was menstruating. When we arrived in Makkah, she applied perfume, and she is still menstruating now. Does she owe anything?
Answer:
If she applied the perfume intentionally while in the state of ihram, she owes a fidyah (ransom payment), which is slaughtering a sheep in Makkah and distributing it to the poor, or feeding six poor people, each receiving half a sa' (a dry measure of about 3 kg) in Makkah, or fasting for three days; she has the choice. However, if she applied the perfume while forgetting or out of ignorance, she owes nothing. Yes.
