Commentary
A sick person may go for Hajj and Umrah even though he fears increase in his illness.
If it is feared that sickness could be a hindrance for the continuity of a journey, then the conditional Ihrâm should be observed. That means it should be said, 'O Allâh! Wherever I face obstacle that prevents me from continuing the journey I will get out of Ihrâm'.
After intending a conditional Ihrâm if one is compelled to discontinue his Hajj or Umrah before completing it, then there is no expiation due on him;
neither slaughtering a sheep nor giving any charity or the like.
