The one whose wife did not complete the tawaf of 'Umrah and returned to his country

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man performed 'Umrah with his wife, but because of the heavy crowd, his wife did not complete the tawaf; rather, he completed it alone. Then he returned to Riyadh, and he was ignorant of the ruling. It has been about a year. What is obligatory for him and for her?

Answer:
I mean, he is asking now, but he did not ask in the Haram. He asked the shaykhs in the Haram, then he came to Riyadh and took a year, and then he asks. This is not permissible; this is negligence. His wife did not complete her 'Umrah, and she is still in her state of ihram until now. She is still in her ihram until now. So he must return. She must come with the 'Umrah for which she entered ihram last year and avoid the prohibitions of ihram.
And if intercourse occurred with her, the 'Umrah is invalidated. She completes it while it is defective, then she returns to the miqat and enters ihram for a new 'Umrah to make up for the missed one. Then, when she performs it, she slaughters a fidyah (ransom payment). It is not easy. They play with worship and do not ask. The problem is if they ask. Yes.
