Entering the state of ihram for Hajj on the ninth day
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Issue: If one delays entering the state of ihram until the ninth day, is that permissible?
Yes.
It is permissible, but it contradicts the Sunnah and deprives oneself of the reward. This is because the Sunnah is to enter the state of ihram on the eighth day. By delaying, one deprives oneself of the reward, because if one had entered the state of ihram on the eighth day, one would have remained in the state of ihram until the ninth day engaged in worship. Thus, one misses out on this reward. Many people are lazy and do not enter the state of ihram until the ninth day, and this is certainly a deprivation. Therefore, it is better to enter the state of ihram on the eighth day.
