The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, please clarify for us the meaning of al-muhadha (alignment) at the miqat boundaries?
The Shaykh:
Al-muhadha means what they call the factors of increase. When one is in alignment with it, when one is in alignment with it, it is parallel to it. Parallelism, al-muhadha, is parallelism by land, by sea, or by air. If one is parallel to it, then it has passed over him, and it is obligatory for him to enter the state of ihram. Yes.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
For example, in an airplane, one enters ihram from above in the air. When it is announced that the miqat has been reached, one intends to enter ihram, and one must not pass it without the intention of ihram. The same applies at sea, and on land, if one passes a miqat and is in alignment with the Siyl, or in alignment with al-Hajf, or in alignment with al-Sa'diyyah, one enters ihram from the place where one is parallel to the miqat. Yes.
