My wife and I went to Makkah two days ago to perform Hajj, and in the
airplane we intended to enter ihraam for 'Umrah.When we reached
Makkah, we went to the hotel to put our luggagethere, and after that
my wife found out that her period had come when we reached the hotel.
What is the ruling on that? Does she have to offer a ransom (fidyah)?
What is the value of the fidyah?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Menses does not preventa woman from entering ihraam for Hajj and
'umrah, but it is haraam for her to circumambulate the Ka'bah until
after her menses ends. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him) said to 'Aa'ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) when she
got her menses before entering Makkah:"Do everything that the pilgrim
does but do not circumambulate the House until you become pure (i.e.,
your menses ends). Agreed upon.
It is proven in Saheeh al-Bukhaari that when she became pure, she
circumambulated the Ka'bah and did saa'i between al-Safa and
al-Marwah. This indicates that if a woman gets her menses before doing
tawaaf, she should not do tawaaf and saa'i until she becomes pure.
Based on this, what you wife must do is wait until she becomes pure,
and then circumambulate the Ka'bah and do saa'i between al-Safa and
al-Marwah, then cut her hair. Then she will have completed her 'umrah.
And she does not have tooffer a ransom for having gotten her menses
when she was inihraam.And Allaah knows best.
