Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We conclude this meeting, Honorable Shaykh, with a question in which the questioner says: I was at 'Arafah, and in Hajj, and this was last year, and this was my first time performing Hajj. I cut some of my hair while ignorant, and I was in the state of ihram on the morning of 'Arafah. What is required of me?

Answer:
The safest course for you is to pay a fidyah, and you have the choice of fasting for three days, or feeding six poor people, or slaughtering a sheep in Makkah and distributing it among the poor. Likewise, the feeding must be done in Makkah. The feeding and the slaughtering of the sheep, if you choose one of them, must be in Makkah. As for fasting, it is permissible in any place. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, our noble Shaykh.
