The Temporal Boundaries of Hajj

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This person is asking about the temporal and spatial boundaries, and what is the ruling on entering the state of ihram for Hajj before entering these boundaries?

Answer:
The temporal boundaries. They are the saying of Allah the Exalted:
Hajj is [during] well-known monthsالْحَجُّ أَشْهُرٌ مَّعْلُومَاتٌ
[Al-Baqarah 2:197]
. The time for Hajj, entering the state of ihram for Hajj, and performing the rituals of Hajj is in these known months: the month of Shawwal, the month of Dhul-Qa'dah, and the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah. One enters the state of ihram for Hajj in them; one does not enter the state of ihram for Hajj after them or before them. As for performing the rituals, that is in their time: standing at 'Arafah and staying overnight at Muzdalifah are in their time, and stoning the pillars, circumambulation, and walking between al-Safa and al-Marwah are in the time of Hajj. Yes.
