of three sāʿ of food to six needy people, or fasting three days. The sounder opinion is that the sacrifice due for omitting a required act—such as failing to enter iḥrām at the miqat—follows a set sequence: if he is unable to slaughter a sheep, he buys food equal to its value and gives it away in charity; if he still cannot, he fasts one day for every mudd. The offering for a missed pilgrimage (fawāt) is the same as that for tamattuʿ, and—according to the stronger view—it is to be slaughtered during the make-up Hajj. A sacrifice incurred by committing a prohibition or leaving an obligation is not tied to a particular time; yet, in the preferable view, its slaughter must take place within the Sacred Precinct, and the meat must be distributed to its poor. The most meritorious spot for an ʿumrah pilgrim to slaughter is al-Marwah, and for the Hajj pilgrim, Minā. The same ruling applies to any hady he has driven along as far as place is concerned, while its time is that of the ʿEid al-Aḍḥā sacrifice, according to the sounder opinion. Allah knows best.
