Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: A person put on the ihram in the city of Riyadh and entered into the rites, but when he passed the miqat, he was asleep. Is he required to do anything?
Answer:
If he put on the ihram before the miqat with the intention of entering into the rites, he is in a state of ihram. It is permissible to enter into ihram before the miqat, and there is no harm in it. It is better to enter into ihram from the miqat, but it is permissible to make the intention before reaching the miqat.
As for if he put on the ihram but did not intend to enter into it, preparing to enter into ihram when he reaches the miqat, to say the talbiyah and make the intention, but he slept, then he has passed the miqat. Since he passed the miqat, if he gets off the plane, he must return to the miqat and enter into ihram from there. Or if he remembers while on the road in the car, he must return to the miqat and enter into ihram from there, and he owes nothing. However, if he enters into ihram after passing the miqat, he owes a fidyah (ransom payment) because he left off an obligatory act, which is entering into ihram from the miqat.
