Ihram from Makkah for one who intends Hajj from Jeddah, and the fidyah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. One of the students of knowledge says: A pilgrim from the people of Jeddah intended to perform Hajj while he was in Jeddah, but he did not enter the state of ihram until Makkah. He was told that he owes nothing.
The Shaykh:
He owes a fidyah. He owes a fidyah because he passed his miqat. His miqat is in Jeddah, from which he intended the Hajj; he must enter ihram from there. If he passes it, he owes a fidyah. What does he say?
The questioner:
He says, may Allah preserve you: Then the student of knowledge later learned that it is obligatory for one who does this to commit a sin for not entering ihram from his miqat, so he paid the fidyah on behalf of that pilgrim.
The Shaykh:
It is sufficient if it is sufficient for the pilgrim. It is obligatory on the pilgrim. So it is not sufficient unless he appointed him as his agent. If he appointed him as his agent, there is no harm. Yes.
The questioner:
And no.
The Shaykh:
It must be slaughtered in Makkah, not in any other place. It must be slaughtered in Makkah and distributed to the poor of the Haram. Yes.
