Question No. 22:
A person made intention for Hajj Ifrad and after arrival at Makkah, changed his intention to perform Hajj Tamattu and he performed Umrah and took off the Ihram. What should he do, and from where and when should he put on Ihram for Hajj? Answer No. 22: This is the best way: the person who makes intention for Hajj or both for Hajj and Umrah together it is better for him to change it in Umrah only. This is what the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam) told his companions when they reached Makkah. Some of them were Qarins and some of them were Mufrids, they did not bring Hadi (sacrificial animal). The Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam) ordered them to make it Umrah. So, the companions whether they were Qarins or Mufrids made Tawaf, Sa’ie and haircut, then they took off their Ihram, except those who brought sacrificial animals. They remained with Ihram until they took off their Ihrams at the day of Eid, whether they were Qarins or Mufrids.
The main point is that, whoever comes to Makkah for Hajj only or both for Hajj and Umrah and does not carry an animal with him, it is Sunnah to make the Ihram for Umrah. He makes Tawaf, Sa’ie, have his hair-cut and takes off Ihram and then he puts on Ihram for Hajj in its proper time. Thus he becomes a Mutamatti and he has to sacrifice an animal for Tamattu.
Question No. 23:
A person intended to perform Hajj Tamattu but after Miqat, he changed his mind and uttered Talbeyah only for Hajj. Is he demanded to offer Hadi (Sacrificial animal)? Answer No. 23: This question has two sections. The first one is that he wanted to perform Hajj Tamattu but after his arrival at Miqat he changed his mind and assumed Ihram only for Hajj. There is no objection on it and he needs not to sacrifice an animal.
The second one is that he uttered Talbeyah for both Umrah and Hajj from Miqat or before Miqat, then he wanted to make it for Hajj only, he is not allowed to do this. However, he is allowed to make it only for Umrah. He is not permitted to make it only for Hajj. So, the Qiran cannot be changed into Hajj. It can be changed into Umrah, as it is more beneficent to the believer and as the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam) ordered his companions to do that. If the pilgrim assumed Ihram for both Umrah and Hajj from Miqat then he wished to make it only for Hajj like a Mufrid he is not permitted to do that. But he is allowed to make it only for Umrah and this is the best for him. So, he performs Tawaf Sa’ie and gets his hair cut short and finishes the state of Ihram. Afterwards he should utter Talbeyah for Hajj and becomes a Mutamatti.
Question No. 24:
Whoever assumed Ihram for Umrah and Hajj and after arrival at Makkah he lost his expenses and became unable to sacrifice an animal. So be changed his mind and intended only for Hajj. Is it correct? If he is performing Hajj on behalf of another person stipulating for Hajj Tamattu what should he do? Answer No. 24: He is not permitted to do so. If he lost all of his expenses and became unable to sacrifice an animal, he has to fast for ten days (praise be to Allah): three days during the Hajj and seven days after his returning home; and he has to continue as a Mutamatti. He has to carry out all the conditions, he must assume Ihram for Umrah, perform Tawaf and Sa’ie and have his hair cut and then he finishes Ihram. He should afterwards, utter Talbeyah for Hajj and offer a sacrifice. If he cannot afford it, he should fast for ten days; three days during the Hajj before the day of Arafat and seven days after returning home. It is better for him not to observe fasting in the day of Arafat following the example of the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi wa Sallam) as he halted at Arafat and did not observe fasting.
Question No. 25:Whoever assumed Ihram for both Umrah and Hajj combined and after performing Umrah he finished Ihram; will he be treated as a Mutamatti ?
Answer No. 25: Yes, If he assumed Ihram for both Umrah and Hajj as a Qarin, but after performing Tawaf, Sa’ie and having his hair cut, he made it Umrah, he will be treated as Mutamatti and he has to sacrifice an animal for Tamattu.
