The ruling on one who intended to perform 'Umrah but was prevented from entering the miqat by car
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a taxi driver intended to perform 'Umrah when he reached the miqat. Upon arriving at the road security checkpoint, they refused to let him enter with the car, except for those not in ihram. After a long discussion, he took off the ihram garments, dropped off the passengers, and did not perform the 'Umrah, as if nothing had happened due to his ignorance. The question is: what is now required of him?
Answer:
This can be considered. He is counted among those who are prevented (muhasar). If they prevented him and he had already entered the state of ihram, meaning he was among those who were prevented due to the prevention, but he must weep. When the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was prevented from performing 'Umrah at Hudaybiyyah, he slaughtered his sacrificial animals at Hudaybiyyah and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out of ihram. This is considered valid. And if he puts on the ihram garments again, performs the tawaf, and comes for the 'Umrah from there, if he reaches the place of the blockade, puts on the ihram garments again, enters, and performs the 'Umrah, that is better for him and more correct. Yes. And the expiation for the harm is sufficient; the expiation for the harm is sufficient. He has a choice in it between feeding six poor people, or clothing them, or fasting three days. Yes.
