The ruling on one who forgets the intention of 'Umrah at the miqat

Question:
What? Honorable Shaykh, may Allah be truthful with you, a man performed 'Umrah and forgot to verbalize the intention, that is, the intention of 'Umrah, or he passed the miqat while sleeping and did not verbalize the intention. What is required of him? The issue is not about verbalizing it; the issue is about forming the intention in the heart. He intends to enter the state of consecration. He intends to enter the state of consecration; this is the ihram. And the recitation of the talbiyah is a recommended practice. The House is far from him.

Answer:
'Umrah. This is a recommended practice, even if he did not recite the talbiyah, and even if he did not verbalize it, as long as he formed the intention in his heart. If he did not form the intention when he passed the miqat, and he passed it while sleeping, and he did not form the intention until after he had passed it, then he owes a fidyah (ransom payment). He owes a fidyah. He slaughters a sheep in Makkah and distributes it to the poor, and his 'Umrah is valid. And this fidyah is because he left an obligatory act of the ihram, which is entering the ihram from the miqat. Yes. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
