The answer

If a man assumes for Hajj from the , he is obligated to abstain from all ihram prohibitions. If he commits them out of ignorance of the ruling, the more cautious approach is for him to offer for cutting hair and clipping nails by choosing one of these options: fasting for three days, or feeding six poor persons (half a sa' for each poor person), or sacrificing a sheep. However, if he was aware of the ruling, he must offer a compensatory fidyah from which he can choose, for each prohibition he committed (such as wearing tailored clothes, covering the head, applying perfume, cutting hair, and clipping nails). His Hajj is valid in all these cases. As for intending Hajj from the Miqat, nothing is binding upon him. If he passes the Miqat without assuming ihram, he must offer a dam (sacrificial animal) for abandoning one of the obligatory rites of Hajj.
