The Miqat for 'Umrah for the Traveler
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A person traveled from Riyadh, passing through Ta'if, to Abha, and he intended to perform 'Umrah when he returned from Abha. Does the Shaykh say he should enter the state of ihram from al-Mi'lam or from al-Sayl al-Kabir?
Answer:
He enters the state of ihram from the miqat he passes through on his way to Makkah to perform 'Umrah. If he passes through al-Mi'lam, he enters ihram from al-Mi'lam; if he passes through al-Sayl al-Kabir, he enters ihram from there. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) designated these miqats and said, "They are for them," meaning for those directions and for anyone who comes to them from outside their area who intends to perform Hajj or 'Umrah. Yes.
