If the questioner is unable to complete the Umrah due to illness, lack of funds, or other legitimate impediments, she may exit the state of Ihram (tahallul) and must slaughter a sacrificial animal (hady), because she is considered to be in the ruling of one who is prevented from completing her pilgrimage (muhsarah).
