The ruling on one who enters the state of ihram for Hajj on the eighth day from a place other than his home

Issue: If a person enters the state of ihram for Hajj on the eighth day from a place other than his home, there is nothing wrong with it. However, entering from the home is what the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) did, and by this we know that what some jurists mentioned—that one enters the state of ihram for Hajj from the Sacred Mosque on the eighth day—is not correct. Rather, it is closer to religious innovation than to the Sunnah.And some added: Entering the state of ihram from under the spout—meaning the spout of the Ka'bah, i.e., in the Hijr—is the weakest and weakest of positions; because there is no evidence for this.And imagine now if it were said to the people: If they entered the state of ihram from the Sacred Mosque, and you make them eight hundred thousand, what would happen? It is not possible.

In any case: A person enters the state of ihram from his place or from any place he wishes, but the entering of the state of ihram should be at midday on the eighth day.
