The ruling on wearing sewn clothing before shaving the head in Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner is a resident of Jeddah from Sudan. He says: I performed Hajj last year, and I removed my ihram before I shaved my hair or shortened it. What is required of me?

Answer:
If you wore sewn clothing before you shaved or shortened your hair, you owe a fidyah (ransom payment) because you committed a prohibited act. The fidyah is a choice: feeding six poor people, where each poor person receives half a sa' (a dry measure of about 3 kg), or fasting for three days, or slaughtering a sheep in Makkah as charity. The slaughter must be in Makkah, but the three days of fasting may be done anywhere. Yes.
