Question:
The fatwa number states: The questioner says: I went this year to perform the obligatory Hajj with the intention of combining Hajj and 'Umrah (qiran). After completing all the rituals, the day for the sacrificial animal arrived, and I was surprised to find that the money was lost there. I did not know whether it fell or someone stole it. Then, I fell ill and was unable to fast in place of the sacrificial animal. The Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta responded as follows:
Answer:
If the situation is as you described, that you entered the state of ihram for Hajj and 'Umrah combined (qiran) and performed both, and that your money was lost and you did not find anything with which to buy the sacrificial animal, then it is obligatory for you to fast three days during Hajj, and seven days when you return to your country or place of residence. Since you mentioned that your illness continued until you returned to Riyadh and you were unable to fast, it is obligatory for you to fast ten days in your place of residence in Riyadh, or elsewhere, when you are able to do so. There is nothing required of you beyond this. And success is from Allah.
