Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A person came to Makkah for work, and before he arrived, he intended to perform Hajj if it was facilitated for him. Does he have to go to the miqat, or does he enter the state of ihram from his location? And is Hajj obligatory for him, or not?
Answer:
He enters the state of ihram from the place where he made his intention, from where he initiated it, from the place where he intended it. However, if he wants to perform 'Umrah and he is in Makkah, he must go out to the non-sacred area (al-Hal). But if it is for Hajj, he enters the state of ihram from Makkah. Yes.
