Forgetting to remove one's underwear when making intention for ihraam
Question
If a person forgets to remove his underwear after making intention for Ihraam, what should he do?
Answer
On realizing, he should immediately remove the underwear. If he had worn it for a few moments or a few hours (provided it is less than twelve hours), then he should give the amount of sadaqatul fitr in charity.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
