Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah’s peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you. I am advanced in age and live in the south. At the start of the vacation, I go to Jeddah with my son, and I want to perform 'Umrah, but he makes excuses, citing work or the hardship of the journey. After staying in Jeddah for several days, I enter the state of ihram and then perform 'Umrah. What is the ruling?
Answer:
If you come from the south wanting to perform 'Umrah, you do not enter the state of ihram from Jeddah; you enter it from the miqat of the south, which is Yalamlum. You enter ihram from Yalamlum if you come via the coast. However, if you come via the route of al-Ta'if, you enter ihram from al-Sarar. As for entering ihram from Jeddah, that is specifically for the people of Jeddah and for those who intend to perform 'Umrah from Jeddah. As for the one coming from the south, his miqat is Yalamlum if he comes via the coast, or al-Ta'if if he comes via al-Ta'if. Yes.
