Description
What is Damm?
Damm (Arabic: دم) refers to the sacrifice of a small animal such as a sheep or a goat as compensation (Fidyah) for missing an action or violating a Hajj or Umrah-related law. Damm must be carried out in Makkah.
Damm is obligatory when you have:
- Violated one of the prohibitions of Ihram, such as applying perfume or cutting the hair.
- Failed to perform a wajib act of Hajj, such as crossing the Miqat without entering into the state of Ihram.
- Transgressed the sanctity of the Haram, such as killing an animal within its boundaries.
Please refer to these tables which provide a more comprehensive overview of actions that would require Damm.
