A traveler from his city to Jeddah: from where does he enter the state of ihram?

Question:
Also, Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: A person traveled from his city to Jeddah, then performed 'Umrah. Does he enter the state of ihram from Jeddah?

Answer:
If he traveled from his city outside the designated miqat boundaries, intending to perform 'Umrah, he must enter the state of ihram at the miqat he passes through from the five miqats designated by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He said, "These are for themselves, and for anyone who comes to them from outside their area intending Hajj or 'Umrah." One must not pass the miqat on his route while intending Hajj or 'Umrah without having entered the state of ihram from that miqat. If he passes it, he must return to it and enter the state of ihram from there. However, if he passes it and enters the state of ihram after passing it, his ihram is valid and he may perform the rites, but he owes a fidyah (ransom payment) for passing the miqat. Yes.
