Can the one performing tamattu' (combining 'Umrah and Hajj with a break between them) lead the sacrificial animal?

The questioner : May Allah provide for you. Our Shaykh, the matter has become confused for us. Do we understand that it is possible for a person to lead the sacrificial animal and be in the state of tamattu', or is that not possible?

The Shaykh : This is possible according to the author's statement, but if he leads the sacrificial animal while in the state of tamattu', he does not exit the state of ihram. And I do not know how it is correct for us to say that he is in the state of tamattu' when he has not exited the state of ihram? Because the one in the state of tamattu' means the one who enjoys what Allah has made lawful for him between 'Umrah and Hajj. So if one combines 'Umrah with Hajj, the reality of tamattu' is missing in this case, if we say to you: "You are in the state of tamattu', so perform tawaf and sa'y, but do not shorten your hair and do not exit the state of ihram." It would be asked: Where is the enjoyment? So what the author (may Allah have mercy on him) and other jurists mentioned has no basis in the Sunnah.

The questioner : So qiran (combining 'Umrah and Hajj in one ihram) is obligatory for the one who leads the sacrificial animal.

The Shaykh : Yes, or ifrad (performing Hajj alone), but qiran is better.

The presenter : May Allah reward you.
