The answer

The woman is still in a state of and must complete the rites of Hajj/ by going to Mecca. If she is unable to, then she is considered to be prevented (muhasarah) and should exit ihram by slaughtering a sacrificial animal (hady). If she is unable to do that, she should fast for ten days. The woman in ihram must refrain from the prohibitions of ihram. What she committed out of ignorance carries no penalty, except for acts that caused damage, in which case a (expiatory payment) is due.
