The one performing tamattu' who does not find a sacrificial animal: does he fast the three days after the thirteenth day?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you, esteemed Shaykh: Is it permissible for the pilgrim performing tamattu' who did not find a sacrificial animal to fast the three days of Hajj after the thirteenth day in Mina, because they are part of Hajj?
The Shaykh : After the thirteenth, absolutely not. Hajj ends on the thirteenth.
The questioner : The verse, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : Which one?[Al-Baqarah 2:196], Hajj begins from the time of entering ihram for Hajj on the eighth day, but we do not say: he fasts on the eighth and ninth, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not fast on the Day of 'Arafah. So he fasts on the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth. For this reason, Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) and 'Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Sahih al-Bukhari 1997, 1998 The scholars said: He may fast them from the time he enters ihram for 'Umrah if he knows that he will not find a sacrificial animal. They cited as evidence for this the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family): Jami` at-Tirmidhi 932Sahih (Darussalam) Jami` at-Tirmidhi 932Sahih (Darussalam) And based on this, if a person arrives in Dhul-Qa'dah knowing that he will not find a sacrificial animal, he may fast three days from the time he enters ihram for 'Umrah, and the rest when he returns to his family.
The questioner : His saying, the Exalted, Shaykh:[Al-Baqarah 2:197] And His saying in the other verse: [Al-Baqarah 2:196] And we say: Hajj extends to its end.
The Shaykh : There is a difference between "in Hajj" and "known months." "In Hajj" means in Hajj itself, and it is known that Hajj does not begin except from the eighth day to the thirteenth day.
The questioner : And acts are not delayed, like the farewell tawaf after the thirteenth, for example?
The Shaykh : How can it not be? The issue is subject to scholarly disagreement. Some scholars say: It is not permissible to delay the tawaf of ifadah to after the days of Tashreeq. Some of them were strict and said: It is not permissible except on the day of 'Id, and if the sun sets on the day of 'Id and he has not performed the tawaf of ifadah, he must return in a state of ihram. Both of these positions are weak, and the correct view is that the matter is broad, and if the sun sets before he performs the tawaf of ifadah, he has exited the first state of restriction and remains in that state. As for the tawaf after the days of Tashreeq, he may delay it until the last day of Dhul-Hijjah.
We are finished, there is no discussion, my brother. You asked and I answered you. The discussion will be in the mosque, if Allah wills, so that we give the brothers their space.

The Shaykh : Which one?
three days during Hajj

Hajj is [during] well-known months
