The place of entering ihram for 'Umrah from Makkah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Another questioner says: I traveled from Riyadh to Jeddah, and I stayed in Jeddah for a few days. I want to perform 'Umrah. From where do I enter ihram? Do I enter ihram from the House, or do I go back to the miqat?

Answer:
If you intended 'Umrah when you left your country, then you enter ihram from the miqat you pass on your way, as long as you intended 'Umrah when you passed the miqat. However, if you passed the miqat without intending 'Umrah, but then decided to perform 'Umrah, you enter ihram from the place where you intended it, unless you intended it from Makkah. In that case, you must go out to al-Hal, outside the boundaries of the Haram, and enter ihram for 'Umrah. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when 'Aishah wanted to perform 'Umrah after Hajj, had her enter ihram from al-Tan'im, which is outside the boundaries of the Haram. Yes.
