What is the ruling on someone who entered into a state of Ihram for Hajj but was turned back from the entrance of Makkah due to not having a permit, and is a Fidyah obligatory upon him?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If a pilgrim stipulates at the time of assuming ihram, then neither a sacrifice (hady) nor anything else is required of him upon being prevented from completing the pilgrimage (ihsar), based on the agreed-upon hadith of Duba'ah bint Az-Zubair, where the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to her: "Perform Hajj and stipulate, saying: 'O Allah, my place of desacralization is wherever You detain me.'"
