Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: We come in groups for Hajj from America, and we land in Jeddah, then we take another plane to Madinah, and we stay there for three days, then we leave and enter the state of ihram for Hajj from Abqaiq. Is there anything required of us? And what is the miqat for Europe and America?
Answer:
There is no harm, there is no blame on you. The miqat for Europe and America is al-Juhfah. The miqat for all the people of the Maghreb is al-Juhfah, al-Ghamr. This is the miqat for all the people of the West. And if you come via the route of Madinah, your miqat is Madinah, from Amir Ali.
