If he had the chance to do hajj but did not do it, you must not take anything from his wealth to perform hajj with as this wealth belongs to heirs now. Whoever wants good deeds may perform hajj on his behalf or pay someone to do that for him.

Can you please tell that if one is performing hajj qiran and delays his saee of hajj after the tawaf of hajj, how should he perform the saee. Should he perform in ihram and can he have a hair cut before saee and perform in his normal clothes?

After throwing the jamaratul Aqabah on Eid and shaving, he may wear his normal Ihram and then he may perform his Tawaf and sa’ae wearing his normal clothes.

my parents will be performing haj this year insha Allah. Is it permissible to use sun screen after wadhu as one travels to the masjid in view of the weather in makkah/madina? I have heard that sunscreen may contain traces of alcohol.

This is permissible as long as it is safe.

This question is on behalf of my grandparents. They came on a visit visa to Saudi Arabia. They wore their ihraam 2 days after reaching Jeddah when they were going for Umrah. They want to know if it was compulsory for them to wear ihraam when they started their journey. If yes,what is the expiation for this?

They should have worn it from the meeqat and not from Jeddah as they had the intention to perform Umrah before Coming. They must slaughter a ram each, in Makkah and give it to the poor there.

I live in Riyadh. And it happened to me couple of times while we on our way to Makkah or after reaching Makkah mine or my daughter’s period start before umrah. And we can’t exceed our stay for many valid reasons. Like husband’s office, affordability etc. So we ( me or my daughter) had to return home without performing umrah. Pls advice what to do.

Once a person assumes Ihram, he may not take it off until he finishes his rituals! However, if you had stipulated a condition before entering the state of Ihram and said that if something would to prevent you from finishing your ritual, then you may break your Ihram, if you did say that, you can […]

It is permissible to do hajj like our relatives in Makkah say they perform hajj evey year as far as I have heard it is 1 time fardh only and, Can we do hajj like if I am going for the first time to do hajj having intention of doing it from my parents.can I do one time hajj having intention I will get reward and my parents also .

This is not permissible. Yes must make hajj for yourself first. You can’t combine two intentions in hajj like this.

I’m someone that resides in Jeddah. I did Hajj a few years ago with some people that were from outside Jeddah, and they did Umrah upon arrival in Makkah right before the start of Hajj so I did Umrah with them as well. I’ve been told now that this is wrong, and people from Jeddah are not allowed to do Umrah before Hajj. Is my Hajj invalidated, should I pay compensation, or is it okay anyway?

What people had told you is not totally baseless! If you made Umrah and cut your hair afterwards and then assumed another Ihram for hajj, this was tamattu hajj and you should have slaughtered a sheep during the days of Eid and tashreeq in Mina.

If someone perform umrah in shawal/zulqadah, Does Hajj become mandatory for him/her in the same year. i have already performed hajj before but my wife has not done Hajj, If she is on visit visa she cannot do hajj as per the government rules.

No, it doesn’t become mandatory.

I live in Riyadh and in sha Allah am leaving for umrah for 5 days soon. so my question to you is that should I have to shorten and combined salah in this journey and in masjid al haram while doing umrah if it happens at salah time also?
