The severance of tamattu' by the pilgrim's return to Jeddah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person who resides in Jeddah performs 'Umrah during the months of Hajj, then returns to Jeddah and intends to perform Hajj in the same year, is he considered to be performing tamattu', or has his tamattu' been severed by his return to Jeddah?
Answer:
This was before, when the distance between Jeddah and Makkah was a distance of shortening (qasr) that would terminate the tamattu'. But now, the buildings have become close together between the two cities, so this is not considered a terminator of the tamattu'. Yes.
