The miqat for the traveler performing 'Umrah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh: A questioner says: Abu 'Abdullah, if an employee is traveling, for example from 'Ar'ar to Makkah for work to perform a mission, and the work requires him to enter Makkah without entering the state of ihram, and he returns to Jeddah for a short period, then enters ihram from Jeddah and returns to Makkah to perform 'Umrah, what is the Shaykh's opinion on that?
Answer:
If the time of his arrival from his homeland was not for 'Umrah, but rather he came for work, entering Makkah for work, and then when he finished his work he decided to perform 'Umrah, then he enters ihram from outside Makkah, from outside the Haram, as long as he went out to Jeddah and entered ihram from Jeddah, then the requirement has been met, and praise be to Allah. However, if he intended 'Umrah on the day he arrived from his town, then it is obligatory for him, if he wants to perform 'Umrah after that, to return to the miqat that he passed on his way when he arrived from his town; he returns to it and enters ihram from there. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
