The ruling on one who enters Makkah without being in the state of ihram after performing 'Umrah

Question:
He says: What is the ruling on a person who enters Makkah without being in the state of ihram, knowing that he has already performed his 'Umrah, then went to al-Madinah, then returned to Makkah and entered it without being in the state of ihram? What is the ruling on that? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
The question consists of two parts. The first part is about a person who came to Makkah intending to perform 'Umrah and entered without being in the state of ihram. This is not permissible for him; he must enter the state of ihram from the place from which he intended to do so. If he passed by one of the miqat boundaries, he must enter the state of ihram from the miqat he passed. If he was beyond the miqat boundaries and intended to perform 'Umrah beyond them, he must enter the state of ihram from the place where he made that intention. If he does not do this and comes to Makkah, enters the state of ihram from Makkah, and performs the 'Umrah, his 'Umrah is valid, but he owes a fidyah (ransom payment) because he neglected entering the state of ihram from the miqat or from the place where he intended to perform the 'Umrah. He owes a fidyah as compensation for neglecting to enter the state of ihram. As for his coming from al-Madinah to Makkah, if he intended to perform 'Umrah, he must enter the state of ihram from the miqat of al-Madinah. If he did not intend to perform 'Umrah, there is no harm if he enters Makkah without intending 'Umrah and without entering the state of ihram, because entering the state of ihram is obligatory only for one who intends to perform 'Umrah. Since this person did not intend to perform 'Umrah, there is no harm on him for not entering the state of ihram. Yes.
