The Miqat for 'Umrah for a Resident of Makkah on Behalf of His Deceased Father

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I came from my country, Egypt, and I performed 'Umrah for myself. I am currently in Makkah for two days and I want to perform 'Umrah for my deceased father. Where is my miqat?

Answer:
You enter the state of ihram from the land outside the sacred precinct, from 'Arafah, or from al-Tan'im, or from al-Ja'ranah. The point is that you enter ihram outside the sacred precinct, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered 'A'ishah when she was in Makkah for 'Umrah; he ordered her to enter ihram from outside the sacred precinct. He ordered 'Abd al-Rahman to take her out of the sacred precinct and have her enter ihram for your deceased father, or for your mother. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
