The questioner : A pilgrim who resides in Jeddah and whose family is in Makkah entered the state of ihram from his family's house in Makkah and then completed his Hajj. What is obligatory upon him?
The Shaykh : He resides in Jeddah and went down to his family, not with the intention of performing the rites.
The questioner : His family is in Makkah.
