One who performed 'Umrah in Dhu al-Qa'dah, then returned to his hometown, then performed Hajj

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man from the people of Riyadh says: He wants to perform Hajj as a mutamatti' (combining 'Umrah and Hajj with a break between them), so he performed 'Umrah in the month of Dhu al-Qa'dah, then returned to Riyadh, and he will return, if Allah wills, to Makkah on the seventh day of Dhu al-Hijjah. He asks: Is he considered a mutamatti' with this, or is it obligatory for him to enter the state of ihram from the miqat (the boundary at which ihram is entered) for an 'Umrah?

Answer:
He is not considered a mutamatti'. If he travels between the Hajj and the 'Umrah to his hometown and then returns for the Hajj, this is not called being a mutamatti', because he separated them by traveling to his hometown. If he enters the state of ihram for a second 'Umrah upon entering [Makkah], he will be a mutamatti'. Yes.
