Shaykh Muhammad bin Saaleh al-‘Uthaymeen [May Allaah have
Mercy on him] was asked:
Noble Shaykh, what is the ruling on doing Hajj without
Tasreeh? Some people are saying go past the Meeqaat and then enter Ihraam
afterwards and then give a Fidyah [expiation for skipping the obligation of
assuming the state of Ihraam at the Meeqaat]?
Answer: Those who say wear normal clothes and go past the
Meeqaat and then give a Fidyah afterwards then this is taking the Aayaat and
the rulings of Allaah as a source of mockery and jest. Allaah has made it an obligation for you,
when you assume the state of Ihraam, not wear a shirt or any other form of
stitched clothing. Are you coming to Allaah with this form of sin and you claim
that you are getting closer to Allaah by it. Especially if this is a Nafil
Hajj; are you trying to get closer to Allaah by sinning? Even though you are
worshipping him however this is a mistake, a grave mistake. This a trick, on
who? On who? Upon Allaah, the Glorified and the Exalted! How can you insult
Allaah like this? You want to do a Sunnah then it is Sunnah for you to stay in
your land and help those people who want to do Hajj. If they do Hajj then you
will get reward for it. This is the first point.
Secondly, the trickery of those who are in authority over
you, if they have not contradicted the Shar’eeaah then you are obligated to
obey them. This is if they are not contradicting the Shar’eeah. For example, if
the government say to those who obligated to do Hajj, ‘Do not do Hajj’ then if
the conditions of you doing Hajj are fulfilled then you do not obey them in
this regard. Because this is a sin, Allaah has commanded you to do Hajj when
the conditions are fulfilled and they are telling you not to do Hajj. However,
if the Hajj is Naafil then it is not Waajib upon you, then obeying the ruler in
what is not Waajib upon you or leaving doing an action will not lead to you
sinning, then obeying him is Waajib.
Then I say to, oh brothers, obeying the rulers, do you think
this a man obeying another man? Answer…Do you think that obeying the ruler, in
what isn’t a sin, is obedience to merely another human? No! Rather it is
obedience of Allaah because Allaah, The Glorified and The Exalted, says:
O you who believe! Obey Allah and
obey the Messenger (Muhammad), and those of you (Muslims) who are in authority... [Nisaa 4:59]
So here He has directed obedience to Eeman, meaning obey
Allaah, obey His Messenger and those in authority over you IF you have Eeman.
So we obey the ruler in matters that don’t involve sin. We get closer to
Allaah, The Glorified and The Exalted, by obeying the ruler. And we get closer
to Allaah by obeying the ruler without doing Hajj. This is obedience, obedience
that is Waajib. Leaving a Hajj which is Nafil is not a sin.
So my opinion is that these people have broken the law and
have disobeyed the ruler, and by this they have broken the law of Allaah, The
Glorified and The Exalted, in a matter which is broad scope, and all Praise is
due to Allaah.Shaykh Saaleh bin Fawzaan al-Fawzaan [May Allaah have Mercy on him] was asked:
Some of the students of knowledge do Hajj without a
permit [Tasreeh], is this action permitted?
Answer: This action is breaking the law and these people are
responsible for their actions but their Hajj is correct if they completed the
pillars and obligatory actions from it, but they have the sin of breaking the
law of the ruler.Shaykh ‘Abdul-Kareem bin ‘Abdullah al-Khudayr [May Allaah Preserve him] was asked:
What is the ruling on doing Hajj without a permit
[Tasreeh] and some people get in to Makkah by wearing normal clothes and
passing the Meeqaat and then wearing the Ihraam once they have passed?
Answer: Firstly, the rule that states that Hajj can only be
done once every five years has been addressed in the Fatwaa by the people of
knowledge and that breaking this law is disobeying the ruler, the one who has
brought this law in order for the general betterment for the people and this
law has also been passed based on the statement of some the people of
knowledge. So it is not permissible to break this law but if a person seeks to
do Hajj because of the numerous Ahadeeth that talk about the virtues of Hajj,
however they all give the meaning that he is no allowed to lie, not indulge in
bribery, not to be deceptive or part take in sin, then if he does any of the
actions mentioned then it may be that he falls in lying, bribery, trickery or
any other form of sin, as some people have begun to do; they enter the Haram
without wearing normal clothes (so they
won’t be prevented by the authorities) and then assume the Ihraam (once they
have passed) all of which is not permissible.
