The ruling on exiting the state of ihram when prevented from completing 'Umrah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih, may Allah preserve you and bless you. The listener is Hissam, an Egyptian resident in al-Qassim. He has two questions. In the first, he says: I intended to perform 'Umrah and entered the state of ihram, but I was unable to go. What is required of me?
Answer:
If you enter the state of ihram for 'Umrah, it is obligatory for you to complete it. If you are prevented and unable to go, you exit the state of ihram, and a ransom payment is required of you: the ransom for exiting the state of ihram. Allah the Exalted and Majestic said:[Al-Baqarah 2:196] So he slaughters a sacrificial animal and exits the state of ihram in the place where he was prevented. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh

And complete the Hajj and 'umrah for Allah. But if you are prevented, then [offer] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals
وَأَتِمُّوا الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَةَ لِلَّهِ فَإِنْ أُحْصِرْتُمْ فَمَا اسْتَيْسَرَ مِنَ الْهَدْيِThe presenter:
