If one passes his miqat and enters ihram from another miqat because it is closer to him, what is required of him?

Q1: Some of those coming from Tabuk for 'Umrah on the road to al-Madinah pass by the miqat of Dhu al-Hulayfah, but do not enter ihram from it; rather, they go to the miqat of the people of Najd (as-Sail). The reason for this is the length of the road between the miqat of al-Madinah and Makkah and the hardship on the one in ihram. Is this valid?
A1: If one passes by a miqat of the miqats while intending Hajj or 'Umrah, it is not permissible for him to pass it without entering ihram. If he passes it without entering ihram and enters ihram from another place, the fidyah becomes obligatory upon him. It is: slaughtering a sheep in Makkah that is acceptable for the 'Id sacrifice, which he distributes among the poor of the Haram. If he is unable to do so, he fasts for ten days. The fact that he will go to another miqat does not exempt him from this.
