Shaving the head before confirming the slaughter of the sacrificial animal for the pilgrim
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
In his second question, he says: I entrusted one of the charitable organizations with the slaughter of a sacrificial animal, and I intended to perform Hajj. Is it permissible for me to shave my head and take some of my skin before confirming that the sacrificial animal has been slaughtered, or is shaving in this case another ritual? Please inform us. May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh:
Hajj is a time of excitement; it has no connection to the sacrifice. If he is relying on it, he should shorten his hair or shave after performing the tawaf. If it is far from the time of Hajj, he should shorten his hair until he is present for Hajj. Likewise, when he performs the stoning of the pillars, he should shave, even if he has a sacrifice; it has no connection to the sacrifice. However, he should not eat from his armpit, his beard, his head, or his fingernails until he performs the sacrifice. Similarly, at the miqat, he should not eat anything until he performs the sacrifice after the month has begun. Yes.
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. This questioner asks: Is it permissible for one performing tamattu' to stone the pillars on the second day of the days of Tashriq before the sun reaches its zenith?
The Shaykh:
All of it is after the sun reaches its zenith. All the stoning is after the sun reaches its zenith. This is how the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the Companions did it: the stoning is after the sun reaches its zenith. And he said:Bulugh al-Maram 10:2. Hmm. May Allah answer you.

'Ubadah bin As-Samit (RAA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Receive from me (this revelation), receive from me (this revelation). Allah has ordained a way for those women (unmarried females who committed adultery). When an unmarried man, commits adultery with an unmarried woman, they should receive one hundred lashes and be exiled for a year. If they (fornicate while they) were married, they shall receive hundred lashes and be stoned to death. Reported by Muslim.
