What is the ruling on one who passes the miqat without entering ihram?

Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: I am a young Frenchman who traveled from France to Egypt, but I did not enter ihram from Egypt because the visa is written. I am a young Frenchman who traveled from France to Egypt, but I did not enter ihram from Egypt because the visa states that it is not valid for Hajj or 'Umrah. So I entered ihram from Jeddah and performed 'Umrah. Do I owe a sacrificial animal? Because if we had entered ihram from Egypt, there would be problems for us, such as a fine or having to return?

Answer:
This is like those who are currently prevented from Hajj due to the overcrowding, the prevention you know of, which is limiting the number, and then they pass the miqat without ihram and enter ihram after passing it. This is not permissible; it is forbidden. From the pillars of ihram, his ihram is valid, and his Hajj and 'Umrah are valid, but he owes a fidyah. He owes a fidyah for passing the miqat without ihram. The fidyah is slaughtering a sheep in Makkah, distributing it to the poor, and not eating any of it. If he is unable to do so, he fasts for ten days. Yes.
