Question:
I came today, the eighth day, to enter the state of ihram, and I said, "For 'Umrah and Hajj." Am I a mutamatti' or a qarin? And is there anything required of me because of what I said?
Answer:
He is called a qarin. However, the best for you is that you shorten your hair and exit the state of ihram, then you respond to the call for Hajj in a few hours, or after a few hours, or on the ninth day you respond to the call for Hajj, and you become a mutamatti' in the known technical sense of tamattu'. You are required to offer the sacrificial animal (hady) in both cases, whether you shortened your hair and exited the state of ihram, or you continued with your ihram. You are required to offer the sacrificial animal because you are a mutamatti' in meaning. The qarin and the mutamatti' are the same in that the sacrificial animal is required of both. But the best for the qarin who did not bring a sacrificial animal, whether camels, cattle, or sheep, is that he performs the circumambulation (tawaf) and the walking (sa'y), shortens his hair, and exits the state of ihram, then responds to the call for Hajj after that. This is the best for him.
