Marriage in احرام(النكاح في الإحرام) The prohibition of contracting marriage, proposing marriage, or acting as a marriage guardian while in the state of احرام. This applies to both حج and عمرہ and is agreed upon by the majority of scholars.
النكاح في الإحرام
نبی کریم Muhammad (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) said: 'The muhrim should not marry, give in marriage, or make a proposal of marriage' (Sahih Muslim). This prohibition covers the حاجی entering into a new marriage contract, serving as the wali (guardian) in someone else's marriage, or making a formal marriage proposal. According to the majority of scholars (Maliki, Shafi'i, Hanbali), any marriage contract performed during احرام is invalid and must be repeated after احرام ends. The Hanafi school considers the contract sinful but technically valid, though this is the minority view. Physical intimacy between existing spouses is also prohibited during احرام and can invalidate the حج if it occurs before the standing at عرفات.
