Exiting the state of ihram from 'Umrah: Is it by shortening the hair or by removing the ihram clothes?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I performed the rites of 'Umrah, so I did the tawaf and sa'y and shortened my hair, and that was during the day. But I did not take off my ihram clothes until the night, and I got lost in the Sacred Mosque. Does exiting the state of ihram happen simply by shortening the hair, or is it necessary to remove the ihram clothes?

Answer:
Exiting the state of ihram is by intention. If you intend to exit, you have exited your ihram, even if you are still wearing the ihram clothes. If they remain on you, there is no harm.
