The ruling on one who intended to perform 'Umrah but did not enter the state of ihram from the miqat

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: I came from my city to Makkah to work in a job, but before I left my city, I had made the intention to enter the state of ihram on the way to perform 'Umrah. However, I did not know, or they did not tell me, the place of ihram, and I did not ask. As a result, I did not enter the state of ihram and came to Makkah, where I stayed for three days and then performed 'Umrah. Do I owe a fidyah (ransom payment)?

Answer:
If you entered the state of ihram from Makkah, you owe a fidyah. But if you went back to the miqat that you passed and entered the state of ihram from there, you owe nothing. As for if you entered the state of ihram from a place before the miqat that you passed, you owe a fidyah, and the 'Umrah is valid. Yes.
