'Umrah on behalf of the sick and the locations for entering ihram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: I am a resident working in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. I work in Ta'if and I wish to perform 'Umrah on behalf of my uncle, who is suffering from paralysis. What is the ruling, and from where should I enter ihram?

The Shaykh:
If your uncle has not performed the 'Umrah of Islam, and he is unable to be transported to perform the 'Umrah while being carried, then he should appoint you as his agent, and you should perform the 'Umrah of Islam on his behalf, as mentioned in the hadith
Perform Hajj on behalf of your father and perform Umrah.حج عن أبيك واعتمر
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 930Sahih (Darussalam)
in some narrations. Yes.

The questioner:
And the paralyzed man asks: From where should I enter ihram? He says:

The Shaykh:
He enters ihram from the miqat he passes by. If he is before the miqat, he enters ihram from the place where he intended to, if it is outside the Haram. Otherwise, he enters ihram from the boundaries of the Haram. So the locations for entering ihram are three: entering ihram from the place where one intended to, if it is outside the Haram; entering ihram from the boundaries of the Haram; and not passing them without being in a state of ihram. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
