What is your opinion of the one who believes that whoever intends to enter the state of ihram must have the items he is bringing into Makkah for the 'Umrah with him?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If he intends to perform 'Umrah and reaches the miqat, does that mean he enters with a suitcase for Makkah or money, saying: he enters with it, he enters the state of ihram with it?
The Shaykh : No, that is wrong. This means he is saying: it is obligatory that if he intends to enter the state of ihram, the items he is bringing into Makkah must be with him.
The questioner : With him in the same state of ihram.
The Shaykh : No, that is wrong. This is a common person's opinion with no basis, absolutely no basis.
The questioner : It is from religious innovations.
The Shaykh : No, that is wrong. This is not an innovation; this is ignorance. We say: even if we assume that a person entered the state of ihram without sandals and then put on sandals afterwards, there is nothing wrong with that. As for the statement of some common people that says: it is obligatory that you enter the state of ihram in your sandals and do not take them off until you finish the state of ihram, meaning you do not change them, this is wrong. All of this is wrong. It is permissible to change the clothes of ihram to other clothes that are permissible for ihram. It is permissible to change the sandals and put on sandals, even if you were not wearing them when you entered the state of ihram. Yes.
The questioner : Like women.
The Shaykh : Yes. As for perfume, if you did not apply perfume before entering the state of ihram, do not apply perfume after entering the state of ihram. Yes.
The questioner : Like women. May Allah reward you with good. If she wants to take a shawl, she says: it is obligatory that she enters the state of ihram with it.
The Shaykh : No, that is not correct.
The questioner : That is not correct.
The Shaykh : No, that is not correct.
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : No, it is not obligatory on you. It is not obligatory on you. May Allah bless you.
