The ruling on cutting the nails before entering the state of ihram out of ignorance

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, may you live long, I have a question. Yes. If a person performs 'Umrah and, after arriving at the miqat, enters the state of ihram from the miqat, yes, and before he gets into his car, he walks and cuts his nails. He did it forgetfully. He cut his nails out of ignorance of the ruling. Ignorant of the ruling. Welcome. Ignorant of the ruling. And after he cut his nails and came to get into the car, he said, "O Allah, here I am for 'Umrah," on the basis that he started his ihram from that moment and did not know, meaning. But I am just the one who gets up and runs. How is it, Shaykh? How?

The Shaykh : I say we do not see anything wrong with it after he has gotten into the car.

The questioner : No, before he gets in the car. He intended to take us. He is coming from his hometown, but he did not know.

The Shaykh : But when he took a bath at the miqat and put on the ihram clothes, did he say, "Here I am for 'Umrah"?

The questioner : Yes, he said, "Here I am for Allah, for 'Umrah," before, before he performed the sunnah of the prayer.

The Shaykh : As long as the man is ignorant of the ruling, he owes nothing. I say, O

The questioner : Yes, yes, Shaykh, I agree with you.

The Shaykh : I say, as long as the man is ignorant of the ruling, he owes nothing.

The questioner : Well, may Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, says
Our Lord, do not impose blame upon us if we have forgotten or erred.رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِن نَّسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا
[Al-Baqarah 2:286]
, so Allah said, "I have done it."

The questioner : Praise be to Allah.

The Shaykh : And He says, Glorified and Exalted is He,
And there is no blame upon you for that in which you have erred but [only for] what your hearts intended.وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ فِيمَا أَخْطَأْتُم بِهِ وَلَٰكِن مَّا تَعَمَّدَتْ قُلُوبُكُمْ
[Al-Ahzab 33:5]
.

The questioner : O Allah, to You belongs all praise.

The Shaykh : And all the prohibitions, the prohibitions of ihram, if a person commits them out of ignorance or forgetfulness, he owes nothing.

The questioner : O Allah, to You belongs all praise.

The Shaykh : But if he knows or remembers, it is obligatory for him to abandon the prohibited act immediately.

The questioner : If he knows while in the state of ihram, yes, while in the state of ihram.

The Shaykh : Abu Fahd, now or not?

The questioner : Yes, yes.

The Shaykh : Did I understand?

The presenter : Yes, Shaykh, yes, may Allah reward you with good, Shaykh.
