If the questioner forgot to shorten her hair (taqseer) during Hajj, she must shorten her hair with the intention of the ritual whenever she remembers, even if she is in her home country. If she committed any of the prohibitions of ihram out of ignorance, it is hoped that there will be no penalty upon her.
