The Ruling on Breaking Tamattu' by Traveling Between 'Umrah and Hajj
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : No, your mother does not have the right to prevent you from performing Hajj, even if it is voluntary.
The Shaykh : As in your case, because a parent is not permitted to prevent his child from any voluntary act of worship he performs for Allah the Exalted.
The questioner : He returned to Jeddah, or to his family, so is he a person performing tamattu'? Thank you.
The Shaykh : If a person enters the state of ihram for 'Umrah with the intention of tamattu' for Hajj, then travels after exiting the state of ihram from 'Umrah and returns to Makkah in the state of ihram for Hajj alone, then the stronger opinion among the scholars is that he is a person performing tamattu', and that this travel does not break the tamattu' unless he travels to his home country and then returns from his home country and enters the state of ihram for Hajj alone, in which case he is a person performing ifrad in this situation, because his travel severed the connection between 'Umrah and Hajj and initiated a new travel for Hajj. This is the report from the Commander of the Faithful, 'Umar ibn al-Khattab. Accordingly, if a person leaves Makkah for Jeddah while in the state of tamattu', we look at whether he is from the people of Jeddah; if he is, his tamattu' is broken, but if he is not from them, his tamattu' is not broken. Likewise, if he goes to al-Madinah between 'Umrah and Hajj and is not from the people of al-Madinah, his tamattu' is not broken, but he remains in the state of tamattu'. In summary, if a person performing tamattu' travels between 'Umrah and Hajj, and he travels to his home country and then returns in the state of ihram for Hajj, he is a person performing ifrad and not tamattu', but if he travels to a country other than his home country and then returns in the state of ihram for Hajj, he remains in the state of tamattu'.
