What is the ruling on one who travels to Jeddah and then enters the state of ihram from there for 'Umrah?

The questioner : The questioner says: I am coming from Abu Dhabi, and I stayed in Jeddah for five days. After that, I entered the state of ihram from Jeddah for 'Umrah. Is my 'Umrah valid or not? And what should be done if it is not valid? There is also a similar question here, Shaykh, where the questioner says: I came from Egypt with the intention of 'Umrah, but I did not enter the state of ihram until Jeddah Airport. Is my 'Umrah valid or not? Or should I renew it with an 'Umrah from here?

The Shaykh : Yes. What happened to these two questioners happens to many people. They come from their countries with the intention of 'Umrah on the plane, but they do not enter the state of ihram until Jeddah. This is not permissible, because when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) designated the miqats, he said: "They are for them and for whoever comes to them from outside their area." And when the people of Iraq complained to the Commander of the Faithful, 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), complaining that al-Qarn al-Manazil was off their route—meaning it was inclined away from the path—he said (may Allah be pleased with him): "Look for the point on your route that is level with it." This indicates that if a person is on a plane, it is obligatory for him to enter the state of ihram when he is level with the miqat. It is not permissible for him to delay entering the state of ihram until he lands in Jeddah. If he does so and does not enter the state of ihram until he lands in Jeddah, we order him to return to the miqat he passed and enter the state of ihram from there. If he passed by the route of Madinah, we tell him: It is obligatory for you to return to Dhul-Hulayfah, Abqaiq, and enter the state of ihram from there. If he came via the route of Morocco or Egypt, we tell him: It is obligatory for you to return to al-Juhfah, which has been replaced by Rabigh—Rabigh now—and enter the state of ihram from there. If he came from Abu Dhabi, it appears that he passes by al-Qarn al-Manazil. I do not know about the flight paths, but if he passes by al-Qarn al-Manazil, we say: It is obligatory for you to go to al-Qarn al-Manazil and enter the state of ihram from there. If the one coming via the route from Abu Dhabi comes via Yalamlam, we say: He returns to Yalamlam and enters the state of ihram from there. If the questioner says: I am unable to return to these miqats.
We say: If you entered the state of ihram from Jeddah, you owe a fidyah according to the majority of the scholars, which you slaughter in Makkah and distribute to the poor. After this, do we know the answer to the two questions or not? We say to these two men who entered the state of ihram from Jeddah: Your 'Umrah is valid, but each of you must slaughter a fidyah and distribute it to the poor in Makkah. If he says: We have nothing with us, we have no money. What do we say? We say: Seek forgiveness from Allah and repent to Him, and nothing is required of you besides that. Yes.
