Fatwa number ( 17901 )
Q1: What is the ruling in the Shari'ah regarding a man who went from al-Dammam to Jeddah in order to meet his family, his children, and his wife's father? When they settled in Jeddah , the wife's father wanted to perform 'Umrah. He had intended to perform 'Umrah while coming from Egypt , but he did not enter the state of ihram from the miqat , because he believed, or rather was certain, that he would first settle in Jeddah for one, two, or three days, and then begin the rites of 'Umrah. This is exactly what happened. He, the aforementioned man, and the man's wife began the rites of 'Umrah and all of them went to Makkah . The ihram was from al-Tan'im Mosque in Makkah . The 'Umrah was completed for him and his wife. As for the aforementioned man, after he entered ihram with them, an obstacle arose that prevented him from completing the 'Umrah or starting any of its rites, except for the ihram itself from the aforementioned miqat.
The question is: Are the actions performed by these people valid or not, especially regarding the miqat? And is it permissible for the man to remove his ihram clothes before starting the rituals of 'Umrah due to the unforeseen circumstance that prevented him from completing it? Please provide us with a sufficient and comprehensive answer. May Allah preserve you.
A1 : Whoever comes to Jeddah intending to perform 'Umrah must enter the state of ihram for 'Umrah from the miqat he passes on his way. So, if he is coming from al-Dhahran , he enters ihram from the miqat of the people of Najd , which is al-Sail al-Kabir or Wadi Mahram . And if he is coming from Egypt , he enters ihram from al-Juhfah or from the vicinity of the aforementioned miqats, whether by air, land, or sea. Even if he intends to stay in Jeddah , he owes a fidyah (ransom payment) for leaving the obligatory act, which is entering ihram from the miqat. The fidyah is a sheep that is acceptable for the 'Id sacrifice, which he slaughters in Makkah and distributes among the poor of the Haram , and he does not eat any of it. Alternatively, a seventh of a camel or a seventh of a cow is sufficient. If he is unable to afford the fidyah, he fasts for ten days. As for the one who is prevented from completing the 'Umrah by an obstacle and removes his ihram garments, if he made a condition when entering ihram that his place of staying is where I am detained, then he owes nothing. If he did not make that condition, he must put on the ihram garments again and perform the 'Umrah for which he entered ihram, because it became obligatory upon him by the ihram, so he must perform it, and the ihram remains upon him until he performs the 'Umrah. And if he engaged in sexual intercourse during this period that
he removed the ihram, he must proceed with his 'Umrah and complete it, then enter the state of ihram from the miqat he passed when he arrived in Jeddah for another 'Umrah to make up for the 'Umrah he invalidated by sexual intercourse, performing it in full. He also owes a fidyah of slaughtering a sheep in Makkah and distributing it among the poor of the Haram . If he does not find one, he fasts for ten days for invalidating the 'Umrah by sexual intercourse.
