Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: As for the dam (compensatory sacrifice) which is for Hady, it will inevitably go to Mecca; for any other act of worship, there is a choice to do it wherever one wishes.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Whoever wishes to wear such clothes that are not permissible in Ihram, or wishes to cut hair, or wishes to apply perfume without necessity, considering the expiation to be easy, then this is not permissible; rather, concession is only at the time of necessity. Whoever does so must give expiation.

Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked: Regarding what Allah Almighty has said: «﴿فَفِدْيَةٌ مِنْ صِيَامٍ أَوْ صَدَقَةٍ أَوْ نُسُكٍ﴾» , does the person have a choice in this? And what is nusuk? And how much food is obligatory? And from which measure should it be? And how many fasts are required? And is it permissible to delay in this or should it be done immediately? Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) replied: In all the expiations where Allah, Glorious and Exalted is He, has stated in this manner that either this or that, there is a choice; whichever option he wishes, he may do. By nusuk, one goat is meant. By fasting, three fasts are intended. By food, feeding six needy persons is meant; each needy person should be given two mudd, from the mudd of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: And I heard from some people of knowledge, they used to say that if a muhrim struck something and it hit a hunting animal or bird, and it died, but the muhrim did not intend to kill it, then compensation (fidyah) will be obligatory upon him, because in this matter, intention and mistake are equal.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: If several people together kill a game animal, and all of them are in the state of ihram, then the penalty will be obligatory on each one of them, and each one must pay the full penalty. If the ruling is to offer a sacrificial animal (hady), then each one must offer a hady. If the ruling is to fast, then each one must fast. Its example is that if several people together, by mistake, kill a person, then the expiation for killing, that is, freeing a slave, will be obligatory on each one, or each one must fast for two consecutive months.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Whoever hunted after throwing the pebbles but before shaving the head and performing the Tawaf al-Ifadah, then the penalty for that hunting becomes obligatory upon him, because Allah the Exalted has said: «﴿وَإِذَا حَلَلْتُمْ فَاصْطَادُوا﴾» meaning, "When you have come out of Ihram, then hunt." And whoever has not performed the Tawaf al-Ifadah, his Ihram is not completely ended, because it is not permissible for him to have intercourse with women or to apply perfume.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: If a muhrim uproots a tree of the Haram, there is no penalty required of him, but this act is very bad.

Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Whoever forgets to fast the three days during Hajj, or is unable to fast due to illness, until he returns to his city, then if he is able to offer a sacrificial animal (hady), he should do so. Otherwise, he should fast three days at home and then fast seven more days.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) stayed at Mina during the Farewell Pilgrimage, and people were asking him questions about religious matters. So a man came and said: "O Messenger of Allah! I shaved my head before sacrificing (the animal)." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Now perform the sacrifice, there is no harm." Then another man came and said: "O Messenger of Allah! Out of ignorance, I performed the sacrifice before throwing the pebbles." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Now throw the pebbles, there is no harm." Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Then whenever the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was asked about doing something before or after its due time, he said: "Do it, there is no harm."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from jihad or Hajj or Umrah, he would say takbeer. At every ascent, he would say three times: «لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، آيِبُونَ تَائِبُونَ عَابِدُونَ سَاجِدُونَ. لِرَبِّنَا حَامِدُونَ. صَدَقَ اللّٰهُ وَعْدَهُ. وَنَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ. وَهَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ» “We are returning, repenting, worshipping Allah, prostrating, praising Allah, turning to our Lord. Allah has fulfilled His promise, helped His servant (Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him), and He alone has routed the armies.”
