The ruling on one whose money is stolen after tawaf and sa'y
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: I came for Hajj via al-Madinah al-Munawwarah, and I entered the state of ihram from Abi 'Ali. After tawaf and sa'y, all my money was stolen. Do I have to pay a fidyah (ransom payment), knowing that I have not yet cut my hair after the 'Umrah, or should I pay the fidyah in my home country?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
Abi 'Ali, and after tawaf and sa'y, all my money was stolen on the Day of Resurrection. Do I have to pay a fidyah? Knowing that I have not yet cut my hair after the 'Umrah, and do I have to pay the fidyah in my home country?
The Shaykh:
If you intended 'Umrah, then after tawaf and sa'y, cut some hair from your head and come out of ihram. And if you intended only Hajj, or Hajj and 'Umrah, likewise it is the Sunnah for you to cut some hair and come out of ihram. And upon you is this hady (sacrificial animal). If you are unable to do so, fast three days during Hajj and seven days when you return to your family, and praise be to Allah. This is the Sunnah. And if you are unable to fast the three days in Makkah, combine them with the seven days and fast ten days at your home. May Allah suffice me against the one who stole your livelihood, and may Allah compensate you with something better than it. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
