Ruling on bleeding from the nose or elsewhere on the part of a Muhrim
Q 1: My nose bled during Hajj before I entered
Al-Haram.
I washed the blood off, made the Ihram (ritual state for Hajj or `Umrah) and completed my Hajj. When I returned to my place, I found some traces of blood on my Ihram garment (clothing worn during the ritual state for Hajj and `Umrah) and this was two years after my performance of Hajj. Is my Hajj valid in this case, or should I perform it again. I must say that I am ignorant of the matters of Hajj?

A 1:
Bleeding from the nose or elsewhere does not effect the validity of Ihram (ritual state for Hajj or `Umrah). Yet, if the pilgrim bleeds a lot and he wants to offer Prayer or make Tawaf (circumambulation of the Ka`bah), he should wash off the blood and perform wudu' (ablution) for Prayer and Tawaf.
If one has performed Prayer or Tawaf and after that found traces of blood on his clothes without taking notice of it, or one has noticed it but forget it, his Prayer and Tawaf are valid, In sha’a-Allah (if Allah wills). But he should wash the blood of in future.May Allah grant us success. May Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and his Companions.
