One who passes the miqat while asleep in an airplane and intends to perform 'Umrah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: A man left his home intending to perform 'Umrah and had already put on his ihram clothes. He says that during his flight, he fell asleep and did not wake up until after passing the miqat. He asks: Is it obligatory for him to return to the miqat, or does he enter ihram from his current location?

Answer:
He does not return to the miqat, because he passed the miqat while intending to perform Hajj and 'Umrah. It is obligatory for him to enter ihram from the miqat, so he must return to it.
