Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He says: O esteemed Shaykh, how is the manner of entering the state of ihram for Hajj or 'Umrah? Does a person enter ihram while in the mosque or while in the car? And what is the ruling on raising the hands and facing the qiblah when you say: Labbaik Allahumma Hajjan?
The Shaykh : The scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) differed regarding where one begins the state of ihram. Some said: from the time he prays in the mosque and makes the intention. Some said: when he boards the car. Some said: if he is in the state of ihram from Dhul-Hulayfah, when he ascends the open desert. The most likely view is that he recites the talbiyah when he boards the car. He recites the talbiyah, and it is not prescribed for him when reciting the talbiyah to face the qiblah and raise his hands, because that was not reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
