The questioner:
The first question, O long-lived one: Three years ago, I went to Makkah with my family for 'Umrah. The point is, O long-lived one, we entered the state of ihram, I wore my ihram garments, O long-lived one, and we entered Makkah. I found lodging. We sat for a few hours, O long-lived one. My children were with us, and we couldn't find lodging for about six or five hours. My mother went out to look for lodging, and I looked too. In the end, we didn't find any lodging, O long-lived one. I and one of my brothers took off our ihram garments here in Makkah. We went back to my mother, and she found lodging. She scolded us and asked why we took off our ihram garments? We said we couldn't find any, and our intention was to return to the tawaf. So we put on our regular clothes, entered the house, and performed our 'Umrah. What is the ruling on us? May Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
Taking off your ihram garments was a mistake. You were in the state of ihram, and even if you had taken off the ihram garments, you would still have been in the state of ihram. One does not exit the state of ihram except by performing the rites. Since you performed the rites, and praise be to Allah, and you rectified the mistake, there is nothing required of you. Yes.
The presenter:
