Question:
He says: I reside in Makkah. If I go to Jeddah, al-Madinah, or elsewhere, and then return in a state of ihram for 'Umrah, is that in accordance with the Sunnah?
Answer:
Yes, that is good. If you leave the Haram and then return to Makkah, it is recommended that you enter into ihram for 'Umrah. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to Hunayn for the Battle of Hunayn. When he finished the campaign, he returned to Makkah, entering into ihram from al-Ji'ranah, and entered Makkah performing 'Umrah. So the best is that you enter performing 'Umrah. Yes.
