Q: Is it valid for a pilgrim or one performing 'Umrah to enter the state of ihram from Abwa' Ali in al-Madinah al-Munawwarah , even though he has landed at the airport in Jeddah , but he proceeds on the journey to al-Madinah and then enters the state of ihram from Abwa' Ali ?
A : If a pilgrim lands at the airport in Jeddah and intends to go from Jeddah to al-Madinah before Hajj, then when he finishes his visit to al-Madinah and then wishes to return to Makkah to perform Hajj or 'Umrah, he enters the state of ihram from the miqat of the people of al-Madinah , " Dhul-Hulayfah ," which is called " Abwa' Ali "; because his ruling is the ruling of the people of al-Madinah ; based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the miqats:Sahih Muslim 1181a The hadith is agreed upon as authentic. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.

and those (Mawaqit) are also meant for those who live at these (places) and for those too who come from without towards them for the sake of Hajj or 'Umra
هن لهن ولمن أتى عليهن من غير أهلهن ممن أراد الحج أو العمرة
