I am a male, and for medical reasons am compelled to wear a corset.

Question

I am a male, and for medical reasons am compelled to wear a corset. What is the position during Hajj? Is it permissible to wear it with Ihraam?

Answer

Since you have a valid reason, it is permissible to wear the corset during the state of Ihraam. However, notwithstanding validity and permissibility, you still have to pay the Dum penalty which in this case is the sacrifice of one goat/sheep to be distributed to the Fuqara.
