Cutting Hair and Nails for One Who Intends the Sacrifice and Hajj

The questioner:
A questioner says: Your Eminence the Shaykh! I intended to perform the sacrifice, and the ten days have entered, but I did not cut my hair or trim my nails. However, I later decided to perform Hajj. Is it permissible for me to trim my nails and cut my hair?

The Shaykh:
Until the sacrifice, do not cut anything until the sacrifice, even if you intended to exit the state of ihram. But if you performed tawaf and asked for 'Umrah, you may cut for the 'Umrah. This is for the 'Umrah only; it is not included in the prohibition. However, do not cut your armpit hair, pubic hair, or beard until the sacrifice, if Allah wills. As for cutting your hair for the 'Umrah until you exit the state of ihram, or shaving in Hajj until you exit the state of ihram, there is nothing wrong with that, even if you are at the time of the sacrifice; it is not included in the prohibition. Yes.

Another questioner:
If the one who cut them was forgetful, O Shaykh, or ignorant.

The Shaykh:
Yes, there is no harm if this was something that compelled him; then he owes nothing.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
