The Miqat for the People of Sudan and the Alignment with Jeddah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is Jeddah considered a miqat (boundary for entering ihram) for the people of Sudan, or is it aligned with one of the miqats?
Answer:
The situation for Sudan is different. A place aligned with Jeddah, such as Suakin, requires one to enter ihram upon reaching Jeddah because he did not pass through his own miqat. Some scholars say one should enter ihram when he is aligned with the nearest miqat to him, and this is likely the correct view: one enters ihram when he is aligned with the nearest miqat to him.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
