Wearing undergarments in the state of ihraam
Question
The following two errors were made by me unintentionally whilst in Ihraam.
1) When I put on the Ihraam I forgot to remove my underpants. I realised this after about 20 minutes. I removed it immediately thereafter.
2) After coming out of the toilet, I washed my hands using soap unintentionally. Please advise what compensation is due from me, and please advise whether the compensation must be paid/done in Makkah or if it can be done here.
Answer
1. Give sadaqah.
2. If it was a not a scented soap then there is no dum.
A dum has to be executed in the Haram area and the sadaqah that is paid as a penalty can be discharged anywhere, though it is preferable to do it in the Haram as well.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
