Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: In our view, the same ruling applies to one who is prevented for any reason except because of an enemy.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, ordered Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub Ansari, may Allah be pleased with him, and Sayyiduna Habar bin Aswad, may Allah be pleased with him, when their Hajj was missed and they arrived on the tenth day, that they should perform Umrah, exit ihram, and return, then perform Hajj the following year and send a sacrificial animal (hady). If a sacrificial animal is not available, then they should fast three days during Hajj and seven days after returning home.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Whoever is prevented from performing Hajj after entering into Ihram due to illness, or for any other reason, such as making a mistake in counting the dates or not knowing about the moon, then his ruling is like that of one who is prevented (from completing Hajj).

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, was asked about a person who is a resident of Mecca, who entered into the state of Ihram for Hajj, then his foot broke or he suffered from diarrhea or a woman began labor pains? He replied that their ruling is like that of a Muhsar, just as the ruling is for outsiders when they are prevented.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: A person came to Mecca having entered into the state of ihram for ‘umrah during the months of Hajj, and after performing ‘umrah, he then entered into ihram for Hajj from Mecca. After this, his foot broke or some other calamity befell him due to which he was unable to go to ‘Arafat. So he should remain there, and when he becomes healthy, he should go outside the Haram, then return to Mecca, perform tawaf and sa‘i, and then exit the state of ihram. Then, in the following year, he should perform Hajj and offer a sacrificial animal.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: If a person enters into the state of ihram for Hajj from Mecca, then performs tawaf of the Ka'bah and sa'i between Safa and Marwah, and after that becomes ill and is unable to go to Arafat with the people, then when his Hajj is missed, if possible, he should leave the Haram, enter into ihram for 'Umrah, come to Mecca, perform tawaf and sa'i, and then exit the state of ihram, because the first tawaf and sa'i were not for 'Umrah. Then, in the following year, he should perform Hajj and offer a sacrificial animal.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: If a person is not a resident of Mecca and is unable to perform Hajj due to illness, and he has already performed Tawaf and Sa’i, then he should perform Umrah and exit the state of Ihram. However, he must perform Tawaf and Sa’i again for Umrah, because the first Tawaf and Sa’i were not related to Umrah, but were intended for Hajj. Now, he should perform Hajj the following year and offer a sacrificial animal (hady).

It is narrated from Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When your people built the Ka'bah, they made a deficiency in it from how Ibrahim (peace be upon him) had built it." Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Why do you not build it as Ibrahim (peace be upon him) had built it? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If your people’s disbelief had not been so recent, I would have done so." Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Perhaps for this reason the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not touch the Sham and Iraqi corners which are adjacent to the Hatim, because the Ka'bah was not upon the foundation of Ibrahim (peace be upon him).

It is narrated from Hazrat Urwah bin Zubair that Ummul Momineen Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I do not see any difference between praying inside the Ka'bah or in the Hatim.

Ibn Shihab heard from some scholars, who said: A wall was raised around the Hatim and it was included in the Tawaf, so that the Tawaf of the entire Ka'bah would be completed.
