Entering the state of ihram without taking a bath or wearing the ihram garments

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I went to perform the obligatory Hajj last year, and when we approached the miqat in al-Ta'if, the bus driver refused to let us off the bus because we did not have permits for Hajj. So we intended to enter the state of ihram, but we did not take a bath and we did not wear the ihram garments. What is required of us now?

Answer:
Entering the state of ihram is the intention, the intention in the heart. As for taking a bath, it is a recommended practice (sunnah), not obligatory. As for not removing the clothes, you can remove them; you can make an izar (loincloth) or trousers. If you have an izar, put it on and remove the rest, and enter the state of ihram. Praise be to Allah. Yes.
