then he is a Mutamatti'. If he departs and returns, he is not a Mutamatti'. A similar view is narrated from Ibn Umar. This is because if he returns to the Miqat (stating point) or a place closer than it, Ihram (ritual consecration) becomes obligatory upon him from there. If he was at a far location, he has initiated a long journey for his Hajj; thus, he has not enjoyed the relief of sparing one of the two journeys, and therefore, no sacrificial animal (dam) is required of him, just as in the instance of consensus. The verse applies to the Mutamatti', and this person is not a Mutamatti', as evidenced by the statement of Umar.
Fourth: That he exits from the Ihram of the Umrah before his Ihram for the Hajj. If he incorporates the Hajj into the Umrah before exiting from the latter—as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and those of his companions who had the sacrificial animals (hady) with them did—then he becomes a Qarin (one performing Qiran Hajj), and the sacrificial animal of Mut'ah is not required of him. Aisha said: "We went out with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, in the year of the Farewell Hajj. We pronounced the intention for Umrah. I arrived in Mecca while I was menstruating; I did not circumambulate the House, nor did I perform the walk between al-Safa and al-Marwa. I complained about this to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and he said: 'Undo your hair, comb it, pronounce the intention for Hajj, and leave the Umrah.'" She said: "I did so. When we had finished the Hajj, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, sent me with Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Bakr to al-Tan'im, and I performed Umrah with him. He said: 'This is in place of your Umrah.'" Urwah said: "Allah thus fulfilled her Hajj and her Umrah, and there was in any of that no sacrificial animal, nor fasting, nor charity." Agreed upon (23). However, he is obligated to provide a sacrificial animal for Qiran, because he became a Qarin and enjoyed the relief of dropping one of the two journeys. As for the statement of Urwah, "there was no sacrificial animal in that," it is possible that he meant there was no sacrificial animal for Mut'ah, since it has been established that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, slaughtered a cow on behalf of his wives among them (24).
Fifth: That he is not of the residents of the Sacred Mosque (Masjid al-Haram). There is no disagreement among the people of knowledge that the sacrificial animal of Mut'ah is not obligatory upon the resident of the Sacred Mosque, as Allah the Almighty has explicitly stated in His Book by His saying: "That is for him whose family is not resident of the Sacred Mosque." Furthermore, the resident of the Sacred Mosque's Miqat is
