The Type of Hajj Ritual After Performing 'Umrah in Ramadan

Question:
We are concluding this session, Honorable Shaykh, with a question from our brother Abu Ziyad. He says: We went to Makkah to perform 'Umrah in the month of Ramadan. We arrived at al-Sayl al-Kabir, the miqat, after 'Asr. My wife and I, along with our children, entered ihram for 'Umrah after 'Asr. We reached the Haram in Makkah before 'Isha' prayer. We began the rites of 'Umrah after 'Isha'. The day we entered ihram to perform 'Umrah was also the last day of Ramadan. My wife entered ihram from al-Tan'im on the second day of the festival and performed 'Umrah on behalf of her father. We then returned to Riyadh on the third day of the festival, as we are residents of Riyadh. We want to perform Hajj. He asks: Do we perform Hajj as ifrad or as tamattu'?

Answer:
You have the choice. If you wish to enter ihram as tamattu', that is better. If you wish to enter ihram as ifrad, or if you wish to enter ihram as qiran between Hajj and 'Umrah, you have the choice in this.
