Is tamattu' in Hajj obligatory?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, regarding tamattu', is it also obligatory, or is it permissible to perform the other types of Hajj?
The Shaykh : No, it is obligatory.
The questioner : Obligatory?
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed, and it is necessary.
The questioner : Okay, Shaykh, if we assume a person is able but did not perform 'Umrah, does the 'Umrah of Hajj suffice for him?
The Shaykh : What is this you are saying to me?
The questioner : Yes, it suffices.
The Shaykh : Yes, exactly.
The questioner : Meaning, just his Hajj exempts him from 'Umrah as well?
The Shaykh : No, not just his Hajj, but his tamattu' itself.
The questioner : His tamattu' with Hajj; may Allah reward you, Shaykh.
