Leaving the Sa'y Due to Forgetfulness, Then Entering Ihram for Hajj
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: A man intended to perform his pilgrimage as a mutamatti', so he performed the tawaf, but when he went to the place of sa'y, he found it very crowded, so he left it. Then he cut his hair, and then he put on his clothes, forgetting that he had not performed the sa'y.
The Shaykh:
It is like you.
The questioner:
But he said, "Labbaik Hajj," so he went to Mina and entered the state of ihram, then he headed to 'Arafah. What is the ruling on his previous actions?
The Shaykh:
He is to be considered as if he had not done it; his right is that he is excused. They said: There is nothing on him because of ignorance. He should perform the sa'y between al-Safa and al-Marwah. Yes. He should perform the tawaf and then the sa'y after that. Yes.
