Passing the meeqaat without ihraam

· 7 Jumada II 1441 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I came from Pakistan for umrah and performed umrah successfully. Then we (my wife and I) went to Madinah Munawwarah and thought of doing another umrah. One night before I had a flu and pain in my body so we postponed the intention of umrah. We reached Makkah and then next day we performed umrah after going to masjid Ayesha. Someone said that whether you have the intention of umrah or not you should enter Meqaat in ihraam. Kindly help me in this regard as I have last 3 days in Makkah. If dam is waajib and we don't have that amount of money then what do we do?

Answer

Dam is compulsory upon you and your wife on account of you both crossing the meeqaat without ihraam. If you do not have the wealth at present to discharge the dam, then when you do have the wealth, you should do the dam. The dam for each person is to slaughter a sheep or goat in the precincts of the haram for crossing the meeqaat without ihraam.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
