Once he is done with Madinah, he wants to come to Makkah. Yes, he goes to Madinah, visits the Prophet’s Mosque (peace and blessings be upon him), and prays in it. When he returns to Makkah, he enters the state of ihram from Dhul-Hulayfah; he enters the state of ihram from the miqat.
Answer:
Entering the state of ihram from Madinah is permissible.
