The Condition in 'Umrah and Its Meaning

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Shaykh, what is the ruling on making a condition in 'Umrah? And what is the meaning of making a condition? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
Making a condition in 'Umrah or Hajj is for when one fears illness, or fears an enemy, and does not know whether he will be able to complete the rites or not. In that case, he makes a condition and says:
If something prevents me, then my place of exiting ihram is where I am prevented.فإن حبسني حابس فمحلي حيث حبستني.
The basis for this is that Dhab'ah, the daughter of al-Zubayr, the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) maternal uncle, asked him, and she said:
I want to perform Hajj, and I find myself unwell.إني أريد الحج وأجدني شاكية.
So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her: Perform Hajj and make a condition. If something prevents me, then my place of exiting ihram is
where You decree that I cannot proceed.)" And whatever condition you stipulate will be accepted by your Lord."حَيْثُ تَحْبِسُنِي فَإِنَّ لَكِ عَلَى رَبِّكِ مَا اسْتَثْنَيْتِ
Sunan an-Nasa'i 2766Hasan (Darussalam)
.
As for the healthy person, or the one who has no obstacle or does not anticipate an obstacle, he does not make a condition. This is because it is not reported that the Companions used to make conditions. This is only for the one who has a cause that he fears may develop and prevent him from proceeding with the rites. Yes.
