The ruling on delaying entering the state of ihram from the miqat to Jeddah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to enter the state of ihram for 'Umrah from the city of Jeddah if you are a Muslim from the city of Ta'if?
Answer:
If you are a resident of Ta'if or passing through the miqat, even if you are not from the people of Ta'if, if you are passing through the miqat on your way to 'Umrah, then it is obligatory for you to enter ihram from the miqat you pass through, and you must not delay entering ihram until another place. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) designated these miqats for those who pass through them, whether they are from the people of those places or others who intend Hajj or 'Umrah. So, the one who delays entering ihram and goes to Jeddah and enters ihram from Jeddah, having already passed a miqat, has left an obligatory act. He has left an obligatory act of ihram, which is entering ihram from the miqat he passes through. Therefore, he owes a fidyah: he must slaughter a sheep and distribute it to the poor of the Haram, slaughtering it in Makkah and distributing it to the poor of Makkah, or a share of a camel or a share of a cow, distributed to the poor of the Haram. If he is unable to slaughter, he must fast for ten days in place of the slaughter. In any case, this is a matter in which many people err. They say, "I am going to Jeddah, I have work in Jeddah, or I am visiting someone," so they delay entering ihram until Jeddah. This is not permissible, contrary to what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded.
Whether they are a family, one person, or a group, it is all the same. Yes, the one who wants to enter ihram enters ihram from the miqat he passes through, whether alone or with his family. And the one who does not want to perform 'Umrah or wants nothing, but only wants to go to Jeddah, he is not required to enter ihram. Or even if he wants to go to Makkah and does not want to perform 'Umrah, he is not required to enter ihram, according to the correct opinion. Only the one who wants to perform 'Umrah and passes through a miqat is required to enter ihram from the miqat. Yes.
