The ruling on whoever has an Accident on his way to 'Arafat, so he breaks his Hajj and returns to his Homeland

Question :

I set out on the 7th day (of Thul-Hijjah) to the Sacred House and I performed the rites of 'Umrah. Then, I set out to Mina and we offered the five obligatory prayers there. After that we set out to 'Arafat and our car turned over with us in it. We were severely affected (by the accident) and I had a man with me who was my friend, who was performing Hajj for his mother, and he died in the accident. Thus, I went back from the place of the accident during the 9th night of Thul- Hijjah. Therefore, what is required?

Answer:

What is obligatory on you, since you assumed Ihram for Hajj, is that you continue with it until you complete all of its rites. You should not abandon it due to the accident - that Allâh saved you from - and anything similar to it. This is not an excuse for you to abandon continuing with the Hajj. As long as you returned (to your land) before standing at 'Arafat, and making Tawaf around the House (the Ka'bah) and performing what Allâh has made obligatory upon you, you must seek Allâh's forgiveness and repent to Him for what you did. You must also slaughter a sheep that is suitable for sacrifice. This must be done in Makkah at any time and you should distribute the meat among the poor. You should not eat from the meat of the sacrifice and you should not give any of it away as a gift to a wealthy relative. You should also perform Hajj during the next Hajj, if Allâh wills. And success is from Allâh. May Allâh send blessings and peace upon Muhammad and his family.
