Passing the Miqat and Entering Ihram for 'Umrah from Tan'im
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A group of young men from the people of Ta'if went to Makkah with the intention of performing 'Umrah, but they did not enter the state of ihram from the miqat. Instead, they went to Makkah and then entered ihram from Tan'im, out of ignorance of the ruling, believing that Tan'im is a miqat. What is obligatory for them now?
Answer:
This is a mistake. The 'Umrah is valid, but it is obligatory for each one to offer a fidyah (ransom payment), which he slaughters in Makkah and distributes to the poor. This is because it is obligatory to enter ihram from the miqat. Since they passed it and entered ihram from Tan'im, they left off the obligatory act. Each one must offer a fidyah to make up for this deficiency. Tan'im is only a miqat for one who is in Makkah and wants to perform 'Umrah. One who is in Makkah and wants to perform 'Umrah goes out to Tan'im and enters ihram from there, or to al-Hal, or to al-Ja'ranah, or to 'Arafah. He goes out to al-Hal. One does not enter ihram for 'Umrah from Makkah; rather, one enters ihram for it outside the Haram. Tan'im is only a miqat for one who wants to perform 'Umrah while he is in Makkah, so that he goes out to it. It is not a miqat for one who is arriving, passing by the miqats, passing them, and saying, "I will enter ihram from Tan'im." This is a great mistake.
