, or does he wait until the next Hajj?

The Shaykh : It is easy, my brother. What is the problem? He wears it and wraps himself in it.

The questioner : Okay, so does he wait for the next Hajj?

The Shaykh : Why would he wait?

The questioner : Until the weather warms up?
The Shaykh: It is forbidden now; he is in a state of ihram now.

The questioner : No, he knows the news; he knows what the weather will be like.

The Shaykh : No, there is another option. Instead of taking a light cloak, he takes a heavy woolen cloak, a bed blanket, a white blanket.

The questioner : If it actually happens and that is not enough, does he wear the coat?

The Shaykh : I do not think so, for praise be to Allah, one of Allah’s blessings is that Makkah is hot and the cold does not reach that extent there.
