The condition for a person in ihram to exit Hajj and come out of the state of ihram if he is unable to perform the rites

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. The sender, A. L. from al-Qassim, has two questions. In the first, he says: If a person in ihram fears that he will not be able to perform his rites due to illness or fear, what should he do? Please give us a ruling, and may Allah reward you.

The Shaykh:
If there is an existing cause that leads to the fear of not completing the rites, he must make a condition when entering ihram. He says: “If I am prevented by a preventer, then my place of exiting ihram is where I am prevented.” He then comes out of ihram, and he owes nothing, because he has made a condition with his Lord, Glorified and Exalted is He. As the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) guided the woman who told him she wanted to perform Hajj and that she was ill, he said to her (peace and blessings be upon him): “Perform Hajj and make a condition, saying: If I am prevented by a preventer, then my place of exiting ihram is where I am prevented.” Yes.

The presenter:
Shaykh, this person has been expansive in many of his Hajj performances.

The Shaykh:
This applies to the one who has an existing excuse, such as illness or fear. As for the one who has no excuse, but only anticipates that something might happen, and currently has no excuse at the time of entering ihram, he does not make a condition. The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) did not make a condition; rather, only the one who has an existing excuse at the time of entering ihram makes a condition. Yes.

The presenter:
It is not valid for him to make a condition in this case, because there is no evidence for this, and he has no cause. Yes.

The Shaykh:
What is valid in this case is the stipulation, because there is no evidence for this, and it has no cause. Yes.
