It was asked from Hazrat Ata: If a person doubts during Tawaf whether he has performed Tawaf or not, what should he do? He replied: He should perform Tawaf again.

Hazrat Abu Majliz says that during the stoning at Jamarat, I forgot how many stones I had thrown. I asked Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), but he did not give me any answer. Then Hazrat Ibn al-Hanafiyyah passed by me, so I asked him. He said: O Abdullah! In our view, there is nothing more important than prayer. When any one of us forgets in prayer, he repeats the prayer. Hazrat Abu Majliz says that I informed Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) of this answer, so he said: Indeed, he is from the Ahl al-Bayt; matters have been explained to them correctly.

Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) regarding the statement of Allah Almighty { فَجَزَآئٌ مِّثْلُ مَا قَتَلَ مِنَ النَّعَمِ } up to { اَوْ عَدْلُ ذٰلِکَ صِیَامًا } says that when a Muhrim hunts, he should be ordered to pay the penalty of a camel, and if he does not find a camel, then the value of the hunted animal should be assessed; then that value should be determined with food, and for every half sa‘ (of food) he should fast one day. And in the statement of Allah the Exalted { اَوْ کَفَّارَۃٌ طَعَامُ مَسٰکِیْنَ اَوْ عَدْلُ ذٰلِکَ صِیَامًا }, food is intended along with fasting. When he finds food, he has found the penalty for the hunted animal.

Ibrahim, in the explanation of Allah Almighty’s command { وَ مَنْ قَتَلَہٗ مِنْکُمْ مُّتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَآئٌ مِّثْلُ مَا قَتَلَ مِنَ النَّعَمِ یَحْکُمُ بِہٖ ذَوَا عَدْلٍ مِّنْکُمْ ھَدْیًا بٰلِغَ الْکَعْبَۃِ }, says that if he does not find it, then he should determine the price of the food, and then it should be said to him: for every half sa’ (of food), observe one fast.

Hazrat Ata, Hazrat Mujahid, and Ibrahim say that if a person in the state of Ihram hunts, then he must pay the value of the animal with which he can buy a sacrificial animal, and if he cannot find that animal, then he should determine the value with food and give one sa’ of charity to each needy person, and if he cannot find needy people either, then for each sa’ he should fast two days.

It was mentioned before Hazrat Maymun bin Mehran that if a person in the state of Ihram hunts, he said: Allah the Exalted has stated: { جَزَآئٌ مِّثْلُ مَا قَتَلَ مِنَ النَّعَمِ یَحْکُمُ بِہٖ ذَوَا عَدْلٍ مِّنْکُمْ ھَدْیًا بٰلِغَ الْکَعْبَۃِ } If that person finds the compensation for the hunted animal, then he should slaughter it, and if he does not find it, then he should determine its price with money, then take food from it and give it in charity to the needy, and if he does not find needy people, then for each needy person’s meal, he should fast one day.

Hazrat Maqsim says: Set the price with dirhams, then determine the price of food with dirhams, then for every half sa’ (of food) observe a fast for one day.

Hazrat Ikrimah says that the verse of the Holy Qur’an { لَیْسَ عَلَیْکُمْ جُنَاحٌ اَنْ تَبْتَغُوْا فَضْلاً مِّنْ رَّبِّکُمْ } was revealed concerning the time of Hajj.

The same is also narrated from Hazrat Ubaidullah bin Abu Yazid and Hazrat Ibn al-Zubair.
