Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Now, what do you say about a man who came to perform 'Umrah with his wife, and when they finished the rites, they performed tawaf and sa'y and cut their hair, and they were fasting, and he had intercourse with her on that same day? Did you get it? Yes?
The student: If he is a traveler, he owes nothing.
The Shaykh : He came to perform 'Umrah!
The student: A traveler owes nothing.
The Shaykh : He owes nothing?
The student: He owes nothing.
The Shaykh : Rest. Do you understand the question? They came to Makkah for 'Umrah, so they performed tawaf and sa'y and cut their hair; the man shaved and the woman cut her hair, and they were fasting, so he had intercourse with his wife on that same day? Did you get it? Come on, go ahead.
The student: I believe he owes a blood sacrifice.
The Shaykh : You believe he owes a blood sacrifice?! Heh, this is an incorrect belief. Did you get it?
The student: Once.
The Shaykh : That is enough!
The student: ... fasting
The Shaykh : Yes? Huh?
The student: ... fasting
The Shaykh : But he had intercourse with his wife. We said that intercourse breaks the fast.
The student: He is required to pay an expiation.
The Shaykh : He is required to pay an expiation. Rest. Pay attention, brothers, to the words. We said that whoever has intercourse while fasting is obligatory upon him: Is fasting obligatory upon a traveler? No. So, if he has intercourse with his wife after 'Umrah is finished, there is nothing upon them except making up the fast. There is nothing upon them except making up the fast. Likewise, if they were traveling to somewhere other than Makkah, meaning to another city to visit a relative or visit a sick person or something similar, and they were fasting, and he had intercourse with her on that same day, we say there is nothing upon him. There is no sin upon him and no expiation, but only making up the fast is upon him.
