A pilgrim performing tamattu' who did not shorten his hair after completing 'Umrah: what is his ruling?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Some pilgrims are performing tamattu' and enter into the acts of Hajj without shortening their hair. In this case, are they still considered to be performing tamattu'?

The Shaykh : Yes, indeed. Has he not exited the state of ihram after the sa'y?The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : He has exited the state of ihram now as a tamattu' pilgrim, and perhaps he was unaware of the obligation of shaving. Yes, we say: he is a tamattu' pilgrim
The reward of deeds depends upon the intentions and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended. إنما الأعمال بالنيات وإنما لكل امرئ ما نوى
Sahih al-Bukhari 1
But the issue now is that he cannot shave, because he has entered the state of ihram. Therefore, the most cautious course, in my view, is that he slaughters a fidyah in Makkah and distributes it to the poor for the shaving, in addition to the hady of tamattu'. That is the last question.
