The ruling on entering the state of ihram before reaching the miqat

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Abu Raym from Ta'if, yes. Waleed from Ta'if, please. Abu Waleed, please. Peace be upon you. Peace and the mercy of Allah. Peace. If you speak, do you want me to speak to the Shaykh, please? The Shaykh can hear you, please go ahead. Shaykh, I live in Ta'if and I am about ten kilometers away from the miqat. I entered the state of ihram from my house and intended 'Umrah from my house, and I entered the state of ihram and passed the miqat without stopping at the miqat, without praying, or doing anything. This is the first question. Please, Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
Yes, there is nothing wrong with entering the state of ihram before the miqat. And if you pass the miqat, meaning you take a bath and wear the clothes of ihram, then when you pass the miqat you recite the talbiyah. It is not obligatory that you stop and that you pray at the miqat; this is not required. The important thing is the intention that you intend at the miqat to enter the rites of the pilgrimage and to begin the rites of the pilgrimage. Yes.

The presenter:
The second question.

The questioner:
Please, Shaykh, if I mean, when I arrived at the miqat, I did not recite the talbiyah or say anything to him, I just went on, I was only intending from the house, but the day I passed the miqat.

The Shaykh:
Well, it is not required, my brother, it is not required. We told you it is not required. The intention is sufficient if you intend, that is sufficient.
