Question:
May Allah reward you. The honorable scholar says: I went to perform 'Umrah in Ramadan, and after completing the 'Umrah, I went to the barbers located near the Haram. Then my money was lost, and I returned to the car to get the money. The car was far from the Haram, so I put on my clothes, my cap, and my shemagh. Then I returned to the barbers and shaved my head. Do I owe a fidyah for this?
Answer:
Yes, you owe a fidyah for this, because you wore sewn clothing and covered your head before completing the rites of 'Umrah. You owe a fidyah for the clothes you wore, and you have the choice between fasting for three days, feeding six poor people, or slaughtering a sheep in Makkah. Feeding six poor people in Makkah means giving each poor person half a sa' (a dry measure of about 3 kg), or slaughtering a sheep in Makkah and distributing it to the poor. You also owe a fidyah for covering your head, because covering the head is another prohibition distinct from wearing clothes. So you committed two prohibitions: wearing sewn clothing on the body and covering the head. Therefore, you owe two fidyahs, with the choice as we mentioned.
