The Miqat for a Resident Performing 'Umrah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: My name is Mustafa, and I have been residing in Riyadh for nine years and I work for a company. Is it permissible for me, if I go to Jeddah, to enter the state of ihram from Jeddah to perform the obligatory 'Umrah, especially since I have not yet performed the obligatory 'Umrah?

Answer:
If your work permits it and you do not neglect your duties, or if your employers have given you permission, then you perform the 'Umrah. However, you do not perform it from Jeddah; rather, you perform it from the miqat that you passed on your way to Makkah, unless you did not intend to perform it until after you had passed the miqat, in which case you enter the state of ihram from the place where you formed the intention. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
