Shortening the Hair of a Person Performing Hajj Alone While Ignorant

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: A man entered the state of ihram for Hajj alone, so he performed the circumambulation of the Ka'bah and the sa'y, and he shortened his hair while ignorant. He says: What is required of him regarding the shortening?

Answer:
If he shortened his hair and did not intend it, then he owes a fidyah (ransom payment) for the shortening of the hair, and he remains on his original intention. He pays the fidyah for shortening the hair by mistake. Yes.
