The ruling on entering the state of ihram for Hajj or 'Umrah before the miqat
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
And is it permissible for a Muslim to end his 'Umrah or Hajj before reaching the point where he is afraid of missing this obligation?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
Is it permissible for the one who is traveling to do what is reasonable regarding the right or the 'Umrah before he reaches the point where he is afraid of missing this obligation? I believe that this information is also used through it.
The Shaykh:
This ihram from the place of waking is not permissible. The miqats are those designated by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and He said, "They are for them," meaning for these directions, and for whoever travelsSahih Muslim 1181a or for 'Umrah. Yes, some scholars permit ihram before the miqat.
But the correct view is that this is not permissible, so one does not combine them except from the miqat. Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked about that, and the questioner asked him about ihram before the miqat. He said, "I fear fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) for you." He said, "What fitnah is there in this? It is only a few miles or a few fathoms." He said, "And what fitnah is greater than you thinking that your choice is better than the choice of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? Yes.
