A person in Riyadh intends to stay a few days in Jeddah for work; is it permissible for him to enter the state of ihram from Jeddah if he wishes to perform 'Umrah?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. A person in Riyadh intends to stay a few days in Jeddah to attend to some personal matters. He says: Since I am going to Jeddah, then, if Allah wills, after finishing my work, I will perform 'Umrah. If this person enters the state of ihram from Jeddah, does he owe anything for passing the miqat? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
If he intended 'Umrah in Riyadh, it is obligatory for him to enter the state of ihram from the miqat. Whether he passes by it and enters ihram for 'Umrah, or he arrives in Makkah and performs it, then goes out to Jeddah, this is better and easier for him. Or he goes to Jeddah in the state of ihram and remains in it until he returns to Makkah and performs 'Umrah. If that is difficult for him due to the length of the period, if that is difficult for him due to the length of the period, then he goes to his work. When he wants to perform 'Umrah, he goes to the miqat that he passed and enters ihram from it for 'Umrah. As for if he enters ihram from Jeddah in this case, he owes a fidyah of slaughtering a sheep in Makkah and distributing it to the poor of the Haram; because he left an obligatory duty of 'Umrah.
