Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: I went for 'Umrah with my wife and two small children who had not reached the age of discernment. I did not intend to enter ihram on their behalf, and therefore I did not keep them away from the prohibitions of ihram. Afterward, my wife said that I had intended to enter ihram on their behalf. Is there anything required of us?
Answer:
There is nothing required of you, and it is as you wish, because you are their guardian. You are the guardian, and as long as you did not intend to enter ihram on their behalf, there is nothing required of them. Yes.
