Question:
If a person passes the miqat intending to perform Hajj and is unable to return, is he required to enter ihram immediately, or may he delay entering ihram, especially if he is performing ifrad? A man passed the miqat intending to perform Hajj and was unable to return in time. Is he required to enter ihram immediately, or may he delay entering ihram, especially if he is performing ifrad?
Answer:
One enters ihram from the place where the intention is formed; one enters ihram from there. Passing the miqat before entering ihram is not a problem. However, if one passes it and intentionally enters ihram from a place before it, that is not permissible. He must return to the miqat. If he enters ihram and is unable to return, he owes a fidyah (ransom payment).
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
