Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
While performing Hajj and during tawaf, there was a severe crowd, and my chest felt tight, so I shouted at the people and pushed them as they were pushing me. Does this action invalidate the Hajj? And what must I do? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
This action does not invalidate the Hajj, but it involves harming people and also a lack of proper conduct and humility in worship. He must be patient and endure, and repel evil with what is best, especially since he is in worship and among his Muslim brothers, in the best of places and near the House of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). So he must
Repel [evil] by that [deed] which is betterادْفَعْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ
[Fussilat 41:34]
, and be gentle with his Muslim brothers, and with the weak and the crowded,
And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way outوَمَن يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُ مَخْرَجًا
[At-Talaq 65:2]
. Yes. May Allah reward you with good, and may Allah reward you.
