And it is the same whether the state of ihram is for Hajj, 'Umrah (3), or both, according to the view of our Imam, Abu Hanifah, and al-Shafi'i. It is narrated from Malik that the one in 'Umrah does not exit the state of ihram because he does not fear the loss of the Hajj. This is not correct because the verse was revealed concerning the siege of al-Hudaybiyyah, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) and his companions were in a state of ihram for 'Umrah, and they all exited it. For the one who exits ihram due to being hindered, there is a sacrificial animal (hady) required according to the view of the majority of scholars. It is narrated from Malik that there is no sacrifice upon him because it is an exit from ihram permitted to him (4) without negligence, thus resembling one who completes his Hajj. This is not correct because Allah the Almighty said: "But if you are hindered, then offer what can be obtained with ease of the sacrificial animal." Al-Shafi'i said: "There is no disagreement among the scholars of exegesis that this verse was revealed regarding the siege of al-Hudaybiyyah." Furthermore, because he was permitted to exit the state of ihram before completing his rites, the sacrificial animal is required of him, just like one who misses the Hajj; in this, he differs from one who completes his Hajj.

Section: There is no difference between a general siege regarding the Hajj in its entirety, and a specific siege regarding a single individual, such as being imprisoned unjustly, or if thieves took him alone; this is due to the generality of the text and the presence of the [same] rationale in all cases. As for one who is imprisoned justly for a debt he owes and is able to pay, he is not permitted to exit the state of ihram because he has no excuse for his imprisonment. If he is in financial distress and incapable of paying, and was imprisoned unjustly, he may exit the state of ihram, just as we have mentioned. If he owes a deferred debt that comes due before the pilgrim arrives, and his creditor prevents him from performing Hajj, he may also exit the state of ihram because he is excused. If a slave enters ihram without the permission of his master, or a woman enters it for a supererogatory act without the permission of her husband, they [the master/husband] have the right to prevent them, and their ruling is that of the hindered person (muhsar).
