The ruling on entering the state of ihram from Jeddah for pilgrims from abroad
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Many pilgrims from abroad pass by the miqat boundaries and enter the state of ihram from Jeddah. Is there any excuse for people like these?
Answer:
It is a mistake. Jeddah is not a miqat except for its residents, or for those who intend to perform Hajj or 'Umrah from there. One enters the state of ihram from where he intends. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), when he specified the miqat boundaries, said: or from where he begins, meaning from where he intends. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.

And as for whoever is beyond that, meaning beyond these miqat boundaries, closer to Makkah, yes, his place to enter ihram is from his home.
