Entering the state of ihram from Jeddah for one who came to it from Riyadh

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The third question: I reside in Riyadh, and I came to Jeddah, where I stayed for two days, and I entered the state of ihram from there. Do I bear a sin for violating the miqat (boundary)?

Answer:
Yes, if you came for the 'Umrah and did not enter the state of ihram except from Jeddah, then you bear a sin; because you passed the boundary of the Hajj circle. However, if you came to Jeddah without the intention of anything, neither Hajj nor 'Umrah, but for work or a visit, and then it occurred to you, and you were inclined to perform Hajj or 'Umrah, then you owe nothing.
