Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on one who trims his nails after the tawaf and before the completion of the 'Umrah?
Answer:
If it was intentional, he owes the fidyah. The fidyah is fasting for three days, or feeding six poor people, or slaughtering a sheep in Makkah. He has the choice among these three things: either 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) from the poor of the Haram in Makkah, or fasting for three days in any place. This is if he was intentional in trimming his nails while in the state of ihram. But if he was ignorant or forgetful, he owes nothing.
