The questioner : Your Eminence, what is the ruling on wearing the ihram from the airport in Riyadh or from al-Qasim?
The Shaykh : There is no obstacle, but one does not make the intention until he is opposite the miqat.
The questioner : But does he take a bath and wear it?
The Shaykh : Yes, not on the plane. He takes a bath at home and wears the ihram at home, or he wears the izar and wears these usual clothes. When he boards the plane, he takes off his usual clothes and wears the rida.
The questioner : Some people wear it at the airport.
The Shaykh : There is no obstacle at all.
