How does a person combine 'Umrah with Hajj, and if he performs 'Umrah again between his 'Umrah and his Hajj, does that invalidate his combination? Is he required to offer a sacrificial animal or not?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : I ... the question ... I say: I am the one who came from Damascus ... and I do not say "Abiyar 'Ali" as there is no basis for that, and I enter the state of ihram from "Dhu al-Hulayfah" if Allah wills, and I enter Makkah and perform tawaf and sa'y and shorten my hair, is my 'Umrah complete?
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Is my 'Umrah complete, have you exited the state of ihram?
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Have you exited the state of ihram, did you combine this 'Umrah with Hajj or not?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Did I combine? If I perform Hajj later, did I combine the 'Umrah with Hajj or not?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Okay, what is the aspect of combining in this case? What is this combining? Why is it called combining?
The questioner : That is, the person ... .
The Shaykh : Very good. So when I travel after performing 'Umrah, I went out to Madinah and then performed a second 'Umrah from there, did the previous meaning become invalid ...?
The questioner : No, that is the first meaning.
The Shaykh : This has been confirmed, so be certain, because this is a person who combined, because the combining that I explained is that we dispense with two journeys by making it one journey, that is what I said. As soon as I went out from Makkah to Madinah and came with another 'Umrah.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : I understood, but when you ask, is he required to offer a sacrificial animal or is he required to perform 'Umrah again?
The questioner : To perform 'Umrah again, he is required to offer a sacrificial animal.
The Shaykh : Why did the combining not occur as you described it as being ... I am waiting for an answer.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : An answer or not ... .
The questioner : ... If he does this, he owes nothing.
The Shaykh : How does he owe nothing? This is the one who entered the months of Hajj with the intention of combining 'Umrah with Hajj, performed the 'Umrah for Hajj and returned to his country, he owes nothing?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : But is it permissible to do such an action?
The questioner : I say a person entered the months of the sacred precinct ... for Hajj.
The Shaykh : Did he perform Hajj or not?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : No, we will build on the reality now.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : This person who performed 'Umrah in the months of Hajj, is this 'Umrah the 'Umrah of combining for Hajj or an absolute 'Umrah in performing 'Umrah in the months of Hajj? So when he finishes his 'Umrah, does it mean that he combines it with Hajj, he exits the state of ihram and wears the clothes of normality, or did he come from his country to here, Madinah, to perform 'Umrah only and return? Do not confuse between two images: a person who comes from his distant country to this blessed town, performs 'Umrah and returns with it to his country, he does not have in his mind to come for the obligatory Hajj, so there is no clear difference between this image and the second image: he came from Gaza to perform the 'Umrah for Hajj.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : This is the one who combined 'Umrah with the intention ... between it and Hajj, so this 'Umrah spoiled his Hajj ... this is a person ... from Makkah to Madinah, then it occurred to him to return from Makkah to Madinah, then he returned from Madinah to Makkah, so here there are two images: he returned with 'Umrah or without 'Umrah.
The questioner : Without 'Umrah.
The Shaykh : Exactly, he returned without 'Umrah, is this still ... the 'Umrah for Hajj or not?
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Our discussion now is that he returned without 'Umrah, meaning two images: he returned without 'Umrah and he returned with 'Umrah. Now, his return without 'Umrah remains, does this end the disagreement that he is still combining?
The questioner : ... 'Umrah ... .
The Shaykh : When the combining is finished, answer with a correct answer, he combined for one period ... .
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : That is clear.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : As long as he actually combined from 'Umrah to Hajj, this is what is covered by His saying - Blessed and Exalted is He - :[Al-Baqarah 2:196] whether he performed the second 'Umrah or not, he remains, but there is ... but is he required to enter with a new 'Umrah from Makkah ... .
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : This is what we said earlier ... a second 'Umrah, so he is actually combining 'Umrah with Hajj, he is required to offer a sacrificial animal.
The questioner : ... .
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Is my 'Umrah complete, have you exited the state of ihram?
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : Have you exited the state of ihram, did you combine this 'Umrah with Hajj or not?
