From where does one enter the state of ihram for a second 'Umrah performed on behalf of another?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: By the grace of Allah, I have completed my 'Umrah. Is it permissible for me to perform an 'Umrah on behalf of my deceased father, and from where should I enter the state of ihram?

Answer:
Yes, you may perform an 'Umrah on behalf of your deceased father or on behalf of someone else. You should enter the state of ihram from al-Tan'īm, or from al-Ja'ranah, or from al-Hal, which is outside the boundaries. However, as we have mentioned, it is better for you to remain in the Sacred Mosque and worship there than to go out to perform a second 'Umrah. If you wish to benefit your father, make du'a' for him; increase your supplications for him during the tawaf and in your personal du'a'. This is sufficient in place of the 'Umrah. If you come to Makkah a second time, make that 'Umrah for your father. If you come from your country a second time, make the second 'Umrah for your father or for whoever you wish.
