The obligation of entering the state of ihram for one who intends to perform 'Umrah before passing the miqat
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
If a person intends to visit the city of Jeddah with his family, and then goes to perform 'Umrah a day or two later, is this correct, or should he proceed with the 'Umrah first? And should he enter the state of ihram from Jeddah, or from the miqat afterwards?
If he is determined to perform 'Umrah, it is not permissible for him to pass the miqat without entering the state of ihram. I recommend that he intend to perform 'Umrah from the moment he departs from his home, so that he may receive the reward for the sa'y of 'Umrah. He should not intend that he is traveling to Jeddah to visit relatives, or for trade, or the like, but rather that his travel is for 'Umrah. When he reaches the miqat, he should enter the state of ihram from there and complete his 'Umrah, then return to his business in Jeddah.
