The ransom for cutting hair during ihram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Umm Saha, says: She was at 'Arafah last year during Hajj, and in the morning at ten o'clock, she says: I cut some of my hair while I was in ihram, out of ignorance on my part.

Answer:
The safest course is that she pays the ransom, either by fasting for three days, or by feeding six poor people, each poor person receiving one and a half kilograms of food, or by slaughtering a sheep. Fasting is sufficient anywhere, but the slaughter and feeding must be done in the Haram. Yes.
