Wearing undergarments in the state of ihraam

Submitted by admin on Wed, 2016-02-10 08:23

Q: The following two errors were made by me unintentionally whilst in Ihraam.

1) When I put on the Ihraam I forgot to remove my underpants. I realised this after about 20 minutes. I removed it immediately thereafter.

2) After coming out of the toilet, I washed my hands using soap unintentionally. Please advise what compensation is due from me, and please advise whether the compensation must be paid/done in Makkah or if it can be done here.

A:

1. Give sadaqah.

2. If it was a not a scented soap then there is no dum.

A dum has to be executed in the Haram area and the sadaqah that is paid as a penalty can be discharged anywhere, though it is preferable to do it in the Haram as well.

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