Question:
Our honorable Shaykh, what is the meaning of the saying of Allah the Exalted:[Al-Baqarah 2:196]?
Answer:
It means that the one who performs tamattu' (combining 'Umrah and Hajj with a break between them), who combines 'Umrah and Hajj in one year, owes the fidyah (ransom payment), the fidyah of tamattu', unless he is from the residents of the Sacred Mosque, meaning he is from the people of Makkah. The people of Makkah, if they perform tamattu', do not owe a fidyah. As for others from the non-residents, if they perform tamattu', they owe the fidyah, the fidyah of tamattu' and qiran (combining 'Umrah and Hajj in one ihram).
