The questioner:
A woman performed the 'Umrah, she circumambulated and walked between al-Safa and al-Marwah, but she forgot to shorten her hair, and she did not remember it until the second day?
The Shaykh:
A woman.
The questioner:
She performed the 'Umrah, circumambulated and walked between al-Safa and al-Marwah, and forgot to shorten her hair, and she did not remember it until the second day, and she cut her hair. Is there anything required of her?
The Shaykh:
There is nothing required of her as long as she cut her hair and performed the rites, except if intercourse took place. If her husband had intercourse with her before she cut her hair, she owes a fidyah (ransom payment) of slaughtering a sheep in Makkah and distributing it to the poor. But if no intercourse took place, the act is valid, if Allah wills. Yes.
