What is the ruling on making a condition when entering the state of ihram for one who has no excuse?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the ruling on making a condition during the state of ihram for one who is not ill?

Answer:
It is not prescribed, because the Companions did not do this. Only Dhabibah, the daughter of al-Zubayr, the son of al-Zubayr, the cousin of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), al-Zubayr ibn 'Abd al-Muttalib, did this when she was complaining, meaning she was ill. She asked the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) at the time of entering ihram. He said: "Perform Hajj and make a condition, saying: 'If one who prevents me stops me, then my place of exiting ihram is where I am stopped.' Then you have upon your Lord what you have excepted." So if a person is in a state where he fears that he will not be able to perform the rites, he enters the state of ihram and makes a condition. But if he is healthy and free of illness and has no impediment, he enters the state of ihram and relies upon Allah.
