The ruling on delaying entering the state of ihram past the miqat
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I have a question, Shaykh. May Allah reward you.
The presenter:
The first question, Ya 'Ayd.
The questioner:
The first one: I went with one of the Hajj groups two years ago. The person in charge of the group said I could not enter the state of ihram. What is your opinion?
The presenter:
You went two years ago, Ya 'Ayd, and then?
The questioner:
I felt that when I arrived, the leader of the group promised me at the miqat. But when I got there, he said I could not enter ihram from there, so I would enter ihram from you, and I did enter ihram from you. Wait for the second question.
The presenter:
Hold on, hold on, Ya 'Ayd. He says that he entered ihram with one of the groups, Shaykh, but at the miqat he did not enter ihram from the miqat. The group leader told him to enter ihram from Makkah.
The Shaykh:
This is a mistake. It was obligatory for him, if he reached the miqat and intended to perform Hajj or 'Umrah, that he not pass it without being in the state of ihram. He should not delay entering ihram until Makkah or a place after the miqat. Since this happened and he entered ihram after passing the miqat, he owes a fidyah (ransom payment), and his Hajj or 'Umrah is valid, and praise be to Allah.
