From where does one enter the state of ihram if he has arrived in Jeddah and intended to perform 'Umrah while he was in Dubai?

Question:
He says: I came to Jeddah from Dubai to work for a day or two. Is it permissible for me to enter the state of ihram from Jeddah? I came to Jeddah from Dubai to work for a day or two. Is it permissible for me to enter the state of ihram from Jeddah to perform 'Umrah?

Answer:
If you came from Dubai intending to perform 'Umrah, it is not permissible for you to enter the state of ihram from Jeddah. You must enter the state of ihram from the miqat that you passed on your way to Jeddah. You return to the miqat and enter the state of ihram from there. However, if you came to work and did not intend to perform 'Umrah, and then during your work you decide to perform 'Umrah, you enter the state of ihram from the place where you made that intention. If you did not intend to perform 'Umrah until you were in Jeddah, you enter the state of ihram from Jeddah.
