Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: My son is nine years old. He performed 'Umrah a year ago and became separated from his family in the sa'i area. He did not complete the sa'i, having walked only one lap. Then he went and shaved his head and removed his ihram clothes. He is currently in Makkah. What should be done?
Answer:
He should put on his ihram clothes again, because he is still in a state of ihram from the previous year. The state of ihram is still evident on him. He should put on his ihram clothes, perform the sa'i between al-Safa and al-Marwah, shorten his hair, and complete his 'Umrah.
