What is required of one who enters the state of ihram after passing the miqat in an airplane
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: Your Eminence the Shaykh, I came last week from Algiers Airport to Jeddah, and I intended to enter the state of ihram in the airplane before arriving at Jeddah Airport, but the pilot did not inform me of the time of the miqat, because all the passengers were going to Madinah except me. Honorable Shaykh, I entered the state of ihram here and completed my 'Umrah well, if Allah wills, Mighty and Majestic. Your Eminence the Shaykh, I came from my country, Algeria, to Jeddah Airport, but I intended to enter the state of ihram in the airplane before arriving at Jeddah Airport, except that the pilot did not inform me of the time of the miqat, because all the passengers were going to Madinah except me. So I entered the state of ihram here, and completed my 'Umrah well, if Allah wills. Then an Algerian brother told me that I must fast three days here, and five days when I return to Algeria, perhaps seven, so that my 'Umrah may be accepted, or that I slaughter a sacrifice. So please advise us, may Allah reward you with good. What is required of me? Because I cannot slaughter here.
The Shaykh:
It is obligatory for you to enter the state of ihram from the miqat of Algeria, from Rabigh. If you entered the state of ihram before that, you passed the miqat and did not notice until Jeddah Airport or shortly before it, then you owe a sacrificial animal, to be slaughtered in Makkah. If you are unable to do so, fast three days in Makkah, and seven when you return to your family, ten days in total: three you fast in Makkah, and seven when you return to your family.
And if you fast all ten days in your own time, there is no harm, because this is for the one who performs tamattu' or qiran. As for you, you owe a blood sacrifice. If that is not available, fast ten days in any place.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh:
He passed the miqat, the miqat of the Maghreb. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good, says this questioner.
The Shaykh:
And if, that is, for any 'Umrah, one must be awake for the 'Umrah. To the ten days. Ten days if he cannot afford the sacrificial animal, he slaughters the sacrificial animal, and whoever cannot afford it fasts ten days. Yes.
