Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If he is performing Tamattu' and has fasting days remaining from Hajj, and he is ill—ill during the Hajj itself—and it is late in Sha'ban and he is ill, and he has fasting days remaining from the second Ramadan, in this situation, what does he do...?
The Shaykh : What do you say? A man has seven days of fasting for Tamattu' and seven days of fasting for Ramadan, and he became ill and did not recover until seven days before Ramadan. So does he prioritize the fasting for Tamattu' or the fasting for Ramadan?
The questioner : Fasting for Ramadan.
The Shaykh : Fasting for Ramadan.
The questioner : Not the fasting for Hajj...
The questioner : And the three days?
The Shaykh : It does not contradict; they are all the same, because the three days and the seven days have no specific time.
The questioner : How do they have no specific time?
The Shaykh : If the days of Hajj have passed, the days have no specific time.
The questioner : If... he is ill, he is excused from fasting.
The Shaykh : He is excused, yes.
The questioner : During the Hajj itself.
The Shaykh : During the Hajj itself.
