Is it forbidden for one performing tamattu' (combining 'Umrah and Hajj with a break between them) to do so from Jeddah?

The questioner : The first question, Shaykh, is about a man who lives in al-Madinah and wants to perform Hajj al-Tamattu'. First, he performs 'Umrah and then exits the state of ihram. Yes. Then he wants to return to Jeddah and stay there until the eighth day. Yes. Is it permissible for him to enter the state of ihram from Jeddah and complete the Hajj from there?

The Shaykh : Do you mean he enters the state of ihram for Hajj from Jeddah? And why from Jeddah and not from Makkah? We need to know.

The questioner : He has relatives in Jeddah, so he returned to them there.

The Shaykh : No problem, may Allah guide you. I am asking you about the return, I am asking you about his return to Hajj and his entering the state of ihram. Does he not want to enter Makkah?

The questioner : He will enter, if Allah wills.

The Shaykh : Okay, he enters the state of ihram there.

The questioner : Is that possible, Shaykh?

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : Welcome.

The Shaykh : I asked you why he wants to enter the state of ihram from Jeddah?

The questioner : No, he did not find a way to ask from where he should enter the state of ihram. I am the one who asked you in this manner, in your way.

The Shaykh : May Allah guide you. You asked if he wants to enter the state of ihram from Jeddah; you did not say from where he enters the state of ihram. The point is, he is in Jeddah, so he enters the state of ihram from Makkah.

The questioner : If Allah wills, may Allah reward you, Shaykh.

The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe.
