Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I cut a tree branch in Muzdalifah while I was in ihram. The branch was one meter long. He says it was bothering passersby and had thorns. Is there a fidyah (ransom payment) on me for that?
Answer:
If it was bothering passersby and had thorns, and you cut it to remove the nuisance, then there is nothing on you. Yes.
