We entered the state of ihram for Hajj, but we did not have a Hajj permit, so they stopped us at the checkpoint and forcibly removed our ihram garments.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : This year, I performed Hajj.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : We entered ihram and descended from the valley, so a Saudi checkpoint came to us. Under Saudi regulations, a foreigner must have a permit.
The Shaykh : For Hajj?
The questioner : For Hajj. We did not have a permit, so they forcibly stripped us of our ihram garments, and we put on our regular clothes and passed them by about fifty meters.
The Shaykh : How? Fifty what?
The questioner : We passed them by fifty meters from the valley.
The Shaykh : From the checkpoint?
The questioner : The checkpoint, and we went back and put on our ihram garments, my brother and I, and we performed Hajj.
The Shaykh : So you slipped through?
The questioner : No... The point is that they required you to descend to Mecca without being in ihram.
The Shaykh : Ah, yes, meaning it is fine, it is normal.
The questioner: Yes.
Another questioner : The point of ihram at the valley.
The Shaykh : Yes, yes.
The questioner : It is well known.
The Shaykh : The point is that they forced them to remove the ihram, so they put on their regular clothes and descended to Mecca in these clothes.
The questioner : When he passed the point...
Another questioner : When he passed, he put them on, then put on the ihram a second time; what is the ruling?
The Shaykh : Well done!
The questioner : Does he owe anything?
The Shaykh : He owes nothing at all.
The questioner : If I had known they would strip me of my ihram clothes and make me wear my regular clothes, I would have stayed in my regular clothes, and after passing them, I would have put on the ihram.
The Shaykh : ... .
Another questioner : He did not want to wear the ihram clothes; he wanted to pass the point.
The Shaykh : So he did not wear it beforehand.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : So at the miqat, he did not wear the ihram, he passed the group who strip people, it is the same, the result is the same; meaning this one does not owe a sacrifice as they say, and that one does not owe a sacrifice; because each of them was forced to do that, and it was not by his choice.
The Shaykh : Yes.
