Question: The scholars of the madhhab stated that one who intends Hajj or ʿUmrah and passes the miqāt without entering iḥrām, then returns to his family, must make up what he had intended—Hajj or ʿUmrah—and that it does not count for his obligatory Hajj of Islam.
I say: What appears to me—and Allah knows best—is that making up [a rite] is not obligatory, because the Qurʾān only obligated completing what a Muslim has entered into of Hajj or ʿUmrah, in His saying: “And complete the Hajj and ʿUmrah for Allah.” [al-Baqarah:196]. Entering into Hajj and ʿUmrah is by iḥrām, and the person mentioned in the question had not entered iḥrām. The default is that one’s liability is free of obligation.I say: What appears to me—and Allah knows best—is that making up [a rite] is not obligatory, because the Qurʾān only obligated completing what a Muslim has entered into of Hajj or ʿUmrah, in His saying: “And complete the Hajj and ʿUmrah for Allah.” [al-Baqarah:196].
