In the state of Iḥrām
Guidance drawn from the schools of fiqh, not a fatwā. For a specific situation, ask a scholar or your group's shaykh.
Cutting hair or nails
Removing hair from any part of the body, or clipping nails.
Perfume on body or clothing
Including scented soap and scented lotions applied after Iḥrām.
Sewn or fitted clothing (men)
Stitched garments, and covering the head directly.
Covering the face (women)
The face and hands are left uncovered, unless men are present.
Marriage contracts
Neither contracting a marriage nor acting as a representative in one.
Intimacy and its preliminaries
The gravest of the prohibitions; it can invalidate the Ḥajj.
Hunting or assisting a hunt
Killing or startling wild game within the sanctuary.
Washing and bathing
Water and unscented soap are fine, even if some hair falls unintentionally.
Wearing sandals, a ring, spectacles
A belt, watch and money pouch are also permitted.
Sheltering under an umbrella
Or under the roof of a bus or tent.
Changing your Iḥrām garments
Washing them and replacing them with clean ones.
A prohibition broken out of forgetfulness or genuine need generally carries no sin, but may require a fidyah — a fast, a charity or a sacrifice. Record what happened in the app and ask before you assume the lightest option.
