– The impeded pilgrim (muḥṣar) must offer a sacrificial animal according to the sounder of the two reports, and he is not required to make up the pilgrimage if it was voluntary; this is one of the two transmissions. ⦗Majmūʿ al-Fatāwā 26/186; Ikhtiyārāt al-Baʿlī p. 177⦘.
– If he fears that he will miss the standing at ʿArafah while on the road, he may perform the Prayer of Fear; this is one of the three opinions in the Ḥanbalī school. ⦗al-Furūʿ 6/50; Ikhtiyārāt al-Baʿlī p. 113⦘.
Sacrificial Offerings: Hady, Udḥiyah, and ʿAqīqah
– The tamattuʿ sacrifice is a ritual offering and hady. It is among the concessions Allah has granted the Muslims: He permitted them to exit iḥrām midway and required only whatever animal they can easily provide, because remaining in iḥrām continuously is burdensome. For that reason it holds the same status as shortening the prayer during travel, breaking the fast, and wiping over footwear, and is therefore preferable. Consequently, it is recommended (1) to eat from it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ate from his own hady and fed his wives from the animals he slaughtered on their behalf while they were performing tamattuʿ; he himself was also performing the general tamattuʿ. This establishes the recommendation to eat from the hady of tamattuʿ, whereas the compensatory sacrifice (dam al-jabrān) does not share this ruling. ⦗Mukhtaṣar al-Fatāwā al-Miṣriyyah 1/489⦘.
