Question
After completing the rites of Umrah, without shaving/ trimming my hair, I changed into normal clothes. Do I have to sacrifice an animal?
Answer
As long as you do not shave or trim your hair, you remain in the state of Ihraam. You have to shave/trim your hair to be released from Ihraam. You have to pay the penalty of Dumm. An animal has to be sacrificed in the Haram area. Since donning clothes if you have committed other prohibitions of Ihraam, there will be penalties for such acts of prohibition as well.
