The ruling on performing 'Umrah before Hajj by fifteen days
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The fourth question: A person entered the state of ihram for 'Umrah fifteen days before Hajj, then went to al-Ta'if, and has now returned to perform Hajj. Is he considered to be performing tamattu', and is a sacrificial animal required of him?
Answer:
Yes, if he completed the 'Umrah, then went to al-Ta'if or Jeddah, and then came to perform Hajj, he is considered to be performing tamattu', unless he is from the people of al-Ta'if or the people of Jeddah, or he returned to his home and then came to perform ifrad Hajj. In this case, the majority of scholars hold that nothing is required of him. This is also narrated from 'Umar and his son (may Allah be pleased with them both): if one performs 'Umrah, then returns to his home in his city, and then comes to perform Hajj alone, the majority hold that he is in the position of one performing ifrad, and nothing is required of him.
May Allah bless you. If he went to al-Ta'if for a need, not because it is his home, or to Jeddah, then this does not change his status. Yes.
