Wearing clothes before shaving the head and having intercourse with the wife after tawaf and sa'y

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, if a person in ihram performs tawaf and sa'y, and then wears clothes before shaving his head, what is obligatory for him?

The Shaykh:
It is obligatory for him to take them off if he learns or remembers; he should hasten to remove the clothes and return to his ihram garments. Then he is excused due to forgetfulness or negligence.

The questioner:
The same applies if he has intercourse with his wife before shaving his head, after tawaf and sa'y.

The Shaykh:
His Hajj is valid, but he must make up for what happened with a sacrifice. He owes a sacrifice. If he has intercourse after tawaf and sa'y but before shaving his head, his Hajj is not invalidated, and he owes a fidyah. He owes a sacrifice because he committed a prohibited act. Yes.
