Types of Fidyah in Hajj and the Number of Days of Fasting

Question:
This questioner says, Honorable Shaykh: There are some errors in Hajj that require blood (sacrifice), and if the person does not find it, he resorts to fasting. But I hear that sometimes it is obligatory to fast for ten days, and sometimes for six days. The question is: in which cases is the fasting ten days, and in which cases is it only six days?

Answer:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. May Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. The fidyah.
In Hajj, it is of two types: the fidyah of worship (nasik) and the fidyah of Tamattu' and Qiran. This is the fidyah of worship. Allah the Exalted said: . Whoever does not find it. . Seven if you return. This is the fidyah of worship, which is the fidyah of Tamattu' and Qiran. If he is able to afford it, he slaughters it; that is, if he is not able to afford it, he fasts ten days in its place, in order, not out of negligence.
The second type is the fidyah of compensation (jibr), which is the fidyah that becomes obligatory for leaving an obligatory act or doing a prohibited act. This is called the fidyah of compensation, meaning completing a deficiency that occurred in the Hajj. They measured it by the fidyah of Tamattu', that it is in order: if he finds the fidyah, he slaughters it; otherwise, he fasts ten days. The third is the fidyah of being prevented (ihsar). . If he does not find it, he fasts ten days as well.
There is a fourth type, which is the fidyah of harm (adha). The fidyah of harm; Allah the Exalted said: . It is called the fidyah of harm by this verse, or by the harm from his head. If the one who has exited the state of ihram needs to do one of the prohibitions of ihram, he does it and pays the fidyah. If he needs to shave his head, he shaves. And he offers a sacrifice until he covers his head from the cold. That is, he does it and pays the fidyah.
This is the fidyah of choice in the verse , and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) explained that the fasting is three days, not six. Three days, or charity. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) explained that what is meant by that is feeding six poor people, each poor person receiving half a sa' of food, or a sacrifice, meaning slaughtering a sheep in Makkah and distributing it to the poor, or wherever the cause is found, wherever the prohibited cause is found, whether in the state of ihram or outside it. He does the prohibited act he needed, and pays this fidyah by choice: either slaughtering a sheep and distributing it to the poor, or feeding six poor people, each poor person receiving half a sa', or fasting three days, as in the hadith of Ka'b ibn Ujr, which is the cause of the revelation of this verse.
These are the types of fidyah in Hajj. There is no fasting of six days in them; rather, there is fasting of ten days or three days, as detailed above.
