Converting the intention of Hajj from Ifrad to Qiran and verbalizing the type of worship

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
When a person in the state of Ihram, meaning one who has performed Ifrad, transitions to Qiran, is that permissible for him? Yes, it is impossible to change the intention from Ifrad to Qiran.

The Shaykh:
No, that is not valid. However, if he has an Umrah with him and changes it to Qiran by combining Hajj with the Umrah, there is no harm, provided he has a sacrificial animal. As for him knowing about the Hajj within the Umrah, no. The reverse is if he comes after the Umrah, he enters as a Qarin or exits from it.

Another questioner:
May Allah bless you. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), who had intended to be Mutamatti' but had not brought a sacrificial animal.

The Shaykh:
If the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded one who was performing Hajj alone or in combination to make it a Tamattu' Hajj, he would exit the state of Ihram, except for the one who had a sacrificial animal with him. If he became in the state of Ihram for Hajj alone or for both, and he did not have a sacrificial animal with him, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded him to make it a Tamattu' Hajj. This is in the Sunnah.

Another questioner:
The lunar year is by the value of 'Abdullah.

The Shaykh:
Yes, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) narrated, because this is more comfortable for them and more beneficial for them.

The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Does the one who enters the state of ihram for the House of 'Umrah need to verbalize it? No, Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
This is specific to the rites of worship, which are acts of worship based on the text. Hajj requires verbalizing the intent, yes.

The presenter:
May Allah keep you safe.

The Shaykh:
Verbalizing it is prescribed.
