The ruling on one who passes the miqat without entering ihram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I am coming from Algeria to perform 'Umrah, and I was wearing the ihram clothes, waiting on the plane until they would inform us about the miqat so we could perform the 'Umrah. No one informed us of this while we were on the plane, and we arrived at Jeddah Airport.

Answer:
You owe a fidyah (ransom payment) because you were negligent and did not ask. It was obligatory for you to ask; you should not have remained silent until they informed you, because the task is your responsibility. No, so based on the fact that you were negligent, and you know the ruling, knowing that it is not permissible for a person to pass the miqat without ihram, if you passed it without ihram, you owe a fidyah that is slaughtered in Makkah and distributed to the poor of the Haram. If you are unable to do so, you must fast for ten days.
