The questioner : So, is it permissible for the one performing Hajj alone to enter Makkah before entering the state of ihram? No.
The Shaykh : No, it is not permissible. Because if a person passes the miqat and he intends to perform Hajj or 'Umrah, it is obligatory for him to enter the state of ihram from the miqat.
The questioner : Okay, what are the acts of the one performing Hajj alone, meaning he is just performing Hajj alone? As soon as he arrives in Makkah, if Allah wills, he will perform the arrival tawaf, and after that he will remain in his state of ihram until he completes the rites of Hajj?
The Shaykh : He performs the sa'y for Hajj after
