Not cutting one's hair after umrah

Q: I am a 34 year old lady. I did umrah two times but I did not shorten my hair. What is the ruling on that. How can I compensate.

A: You will have to give two dums. Further, if you had carried out any of the prohibited action of ihraam whilst thinking that you were already out of ihraam then you will have to give a third dum.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
