Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man wants to go to Jeddah to visit a sick person, and he says: If I get the opportunity, I will perform 'Umrah. He asks: From where does this man enter the state of ihram?

Answer:
He enters the state of ihram from the place where he intended to perform 'Umrah, whether in Jeddah or outside the Haram. The place where he intended to perform 'Umrah is where he enters ihram; that is his miqat from the point of his intention, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said when he mentioned the miqats:
and whoever is living within these boundaries can assume lhram from the place he startsومن كان دون ذلك فمن حيث أنشأ
Sahih al-Bukhari 1524
meaning from where he intended.
