Performing 'Umrah after Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some pilgrims may be unable to pay the cost of the sacrificial animal, so they enter the state of ihram for Hajj alone (ifrad). Then, when they have completed their Hajj, they perform an 'Umrah.

Answer:
There is no harm in that. If they do this, there is no blame on them, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had 'Aishah perform 'Umrah from al-Tan'im after they had finished the rites of Hajj, when she requested it and insisted. This indicates that there is nothing wrong with performing 'Umrah after Hajj, but one must do it from the non-sacred area (haram), meaning one goes out to the non-sacred area, either to al-Tan'im, or to al-Ja'ranah, or to 'Arafah, or to any place outside the miles of the Haram, the miles of the sacred precinct, and enters the state of ihram for 'Umrah. Yes.
