The questioner:
This questioner says: When I was at Muzdalifah, and while performing wudu, I placed my ihram garment on a small dry tree, and while I was taking off my ihram, this tree broke. Is there a blood sacrifice (dam) required of me for that?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
When I was at Muzdalifah, and while performing wudu, I placed my ihram garment on a small dry tree, and while I was taking off my ihram, this tree broke. Is there a blood sacrifice (dam) required of me for that? Please advise us, may Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh:
No, you owe nothing. Even if the people of the garment were many, you owe nothing. It was not intentional on your part.[Al-Ahzab 33:5] This is the case. If you had done it intentionally, you would have to seek forgiveness and repent, but you would not have to slaughter an animal. Yes.
