The ruling on one who exits the state of ihram from the 'Umrah of tamattu' and is unable to perform Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A pilgrim performing tamattu' performed 'Umrah, then exited the state of ihram and returned to his city of Riyadh. When he wanted to enter the state of ihram for Hajj, obstacles prevented him. What is required of him? He says: A pilgrim intended tamattu'

Answer:
He performed 'Umrah and then exited the state of ihram, but he returned to his city of Riyadh, and obstacles prevented him from doing so. What is required of him? Praise be to Allah. If Hajj becomes easy for him, he performs it; otherwise, it is not obligatory. Hajj is not obligatory except by beginning it. He did not begin it; he only performed 'Umrah. So if Hajj becomes easy for him, he performs it; otherwise, he does not. This is if it is after the obligatory Hajj. If it is after the obligatory Hajj, he is required to perform the obligatory Hajj.
